Gas prices are down this week, but drivers in Kansas are still paying more at the pump than they were in January. AAA said the National average price for a gallon of gas is $3.41. Meanwhile, in Kansas, the average was listed at $3.14. That’s down one cent from Friday, four cents from the previous week and two cents from the previous year; however, it’s still about 24 cents more than the previous month.
AAA also indicated that the average price for a gallon of diesel fuel in Kansas is $4.05 which is down three cents from the previous day and six cents from the previous week. The price is up four cents from the previous month and 44 cents from the previous year. That average is still about $1.50 less than what Kansans were paying for unleaded gas at its record-breaking prices in June and $1.30 less for diesel. The cost of a gallon of gas in Ottawa this morning was $3.04.
