Gas prices Austin
For Austin motorists, gasoline for less than $2 per gallon is back.
Gasoline prices have been steadily falling for the past few months, and some local stations are again selling regular unleaded gasoline for less than $2 per gallon. GasBuddy.com, which tracks prices at the pump, on Thursday listed more than 35 stores in the Austin metro area with prices at $2 per gallon or less.
The average price per gallon in the Austin metro area isn’t yet below the $2 figure — it dropped to $2.15 per gallon, auto club AAA Texas said Thursday – but industry analysts say prices could continue to drop because demand typically drops in the fall.
A Mobil station’s sign on South Congress advertises gasoline for $1.95 per gallon on Thursday.
Austin’s current $2.15 average price is 7 cents lower than last week’s average, according to AAA Texas, and the lowest average local price since the week of Feb. 26, when the average price was $2.14. The current average price is $1.02 per gallon lower than the same week last year, when the average price was $3.17 per gallon, according to AAA Texas.
For Texas as a whole, the average price per gallon declined 8 cents this week to $2.07. Amarillo, Fort Worth and Texarkana all have seen their average price drive below $2 per gallon this week, at $1.98 for regular unleaded, according to AAA Texas.
