AAA Michigan says gas prices statewide have fallen by about 5 cents per gallon in the past week.

The Dearborn-based auto club says Tuesday the average price for self-serve regular unleaded gasoline was about $2.42 per gallon. That's about 8 cents less than at the same point last year.

AAA says the lowest average price was about $2.36 per gallon in the Benton Harbor area. The highest was about $2.48 in the Marquette area.

AAA Michigan surveys daily fuel prices at 2,800 gas stations across the state.

Meanwhile, the Summer Fuel Price Appraisal released by the Michigan Agency for Energy says drivers can expect to pay slightly more for gasoline than they did last year. Those who drive diesel fuel vehicles will see a bigger bump.
