Inland Empire Gas Prices Keep Climbing
The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in the Inland Empire
rose today for the fifth consecutive day, increasing 1.9 cents to $4.34.
The increases stem from record low gasoline inventories and continued
refinery issues, according to Jeffrey Spring of the Automobile Club of Southern California.
The average price in Riverside and San Bernardino counties is 14.3 cents
more than a week ago, 9.7 cents higher than one month ago and 12.3 cents
greater than one year ago, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price
Information Service.
