Bridgeport Gas Prices Below State Average As Connecticut Prices Ease

BRIDGEPORT, CT — Gas prices at Bridgeport stations are running below the state average this week as the Connecticut average slipped slightly from a week ago, according to AAA and the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

The average price for a gallon of regular gasoline in Connecticut was $4.45 on Tuesday, according to AAA. That is down about 4 cents from $4.49 a week ago but up about 13 cents from $4.32 a month ago. Compared with a year ago, when the state average was $3.12, drivers are paying about $1.33 more per gallon.

The Connecticut average is about 9 cents higher than the national average of $4.35 a gallon for regular gasoline, according to the latest weekly data from the EIA, released Tuesday and reflecting prices as of Monday. The national average fell about 11 cents from $4.47 the previous week.

The EIA does not track Connecticut prices individually. It reports them as part of its New England region, where regular gasoline averaged $4.34 a gallon as of Monday, down about 3 cents from the week before.

In Bridgeport, the 16 stations with current price reports averaged $4.37 a gallon for regular. That is about 8 cents below the Connecticut average from AAA, about 2 cents above the New England average from the EIA and about 1 cent above the national average.
