Rhode Island Gas Prices Up 1 Cent

Providence, R.I., June 20, 2023 — Rhode Island’s average gas price is up 1 cent from last week ($3.50), averaging $3.51 per gallon. Today’s price is 10 cents higher than a month ago ($3.41), and $1.46 lower than June 5, 2022 ($4.97). Rhode Island’s average gas price is 5 cents lower than the national average. 

“We may be in a bit of a demand lull heading into the July Fourth holiday,” said Diana Gugliotta, Director of Public Affairs for AAA Northeast. “Drivers are benefitting financially, with 20 gallons of gas costing nearly $30 less than last year. And with the cost for oil low, drivers will find pump prices that are flat or drifting slightly lower for now.” 

AAA Northeast’s June 20 survey of fuel prices found the current national average to be 2 cents lower than last week ($3.59), averaging $3.57 a gallon. Today’s national average price is 3 cent higher than a month ago ($3.54), and is $1.41 cents lower than this day last year ($4.98).
