Gas Prices Continue To Rise

PITTSBURGH — Gas prices are going up in western Pennsylvania. The average price in the region, according to AAA, is $3.65, up two cents from last week. AAA said that a year ago, on March 6, 2023, the average price was $3.76. Here in Washington the average is also $3.65. Trple-A says the national average is nine-cents higher than one-week ago.
