The average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline in Massachusetts rose to $3.77 from $3.58 the previous week and up from $3.51 one month ago, according to travel association AAA Northeast.
“While prices continue to decrease in many regions of the country, lack of inventory and sustained demand here in the Northeast are driving up our prices at the pump,” Mary Maguire, AAA Northeast vice president of public and government affairs, said in the Monday gasoline prices report.
National prices fell 3 cents to $3.76 since the previous week, dropping below Massachusetts prices.
Diesel prices in Massachusetts rose 86 cents since the previous month to $5.76, while the average nationwide is $5.31.
