Gas prices in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, have decreased slightly this week, offering some relief to local drivers. According to Triple-A, the average price for a gallon of regular fuel in Harrisburg is now $3.30. This marks a four-cent drop from last week's prices.
Statewide, the average cost of regular fuel in Pennsylvania is $3.34 per gallon, slightly higher than the Harrisburg average. The national average stands at $3.166, as reported by AAA Fuel Prices.
The decrease in gas prices can be attributed to a combination of factors, including lower demand following the spring break travel period and a recent announcement from OPEC+ about increasing oil production. As noted by AAA, these factors have contributed to a downward trend in prices, which may continue in the near future.
