Gasoline prices in Iowa have risen about 12 cents a gallon on average over the past month, but they’re still down about 25-cents a gallon from a year ago, according to Brian Ortner at AAA of Iowa. As we shift from winter to spring weather, he anticipates more fluctuations in gas prices as Iowans’ driving habits change.
The current statewide average for gas is $3.05 a gallon, which is the same as a week ago.
Triple-A says Iowa’s cheapest and most expensive gas prices are both in eastern Iowa. The average price in Davenport is $2.95, while in Dubuque, it’s $3.21. Find out more online at www.gasprices.aaa.com/.
