Gas Prices Skyrocket, AAA Says

Find out what the prices are like in Radnor Township.

This past week has seen gas prices jumping more than two digits in many areas of the country, including the Philadelphia area, according to AAA.

AAA attributes the price jump to a rise in crude oil prices and some refineries closing for good or for maintenance. They call this week-over-week spike the most dramatic in nearly two years.

In the Radnor Patch, the best price is $3.70, which you can find at the Sunoco on Lancaster Avenue in Wayne, according to Patch’s commute report.
