Greater Worcester gasoline prices decreased 4 cents per gallon over the past week. Though at $3.43, it is 4 cents higher than last month’s average of $3.39 per gallon, according to data from the travel association AAA.

The average price of a gallon in Massachusetts was $3.33 a month ago.
“The oil market volatility is leading to lower prices,” Mary Maguire, AAA Northeast vice president of public and government affairs, said in a Monday press release. “And we are also in a pre-summer driving season lull regarding domestic demand. These two factors should keep pump prices drifting lower for now.”
