Gas prices in Rhode Island are 1 cent higher than the national average this week, but 3 cents lower than in-state prices one year ago.
“The combination of tepid demand, and increased gasoline and crude oil output continues to put downward pressure on gas prices,” said Lloyd Albert, senior vice president of public and government affairs for AAA Northeast. “While holiday gasoline demand is likely to reach new highs, it will probably not be enough to cause a significant increase on the price of gasoline in the coming week.”
