Georgia gas prices remain unchanged this week.

Georgia motorists continue to pay an average price of $2.97 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline.

It now costs motorists $44.55 to fill a 15-gallon tank of gasoline; that is $7.65 more than what motorists paid in January of 2020 when pump prices hit their peak of $2.46 per gallon.

Although averages have managed to remain stable for the past few weeks, the impact of both hurricanes and the latest increases in crude prices may spell fluctuation at the pump for motorists later this month.

Local averages on Monday were $2.90 in Floyd County, $2.94 in Bartow County, $2.87 in Gordon County, $2.95 in Chattooga County, and $2.91 in Polk County.
