PROVIDENCE – Self-serve, regular gasoline prices stayed the same this week in Rhode Island, while they rose 1 cent in Massachusetts, AAA Northeast said Monday.

“With prices at the pump the lowest we’ve seen in 11 years, and up only a penny (in Massachusetts) in the face of the busy July fourth weekend – drivers have one more reason to take to the road for the Independence Day holiday,” Mary Maguire, director of public and legislative affairs at AAA Northeast, said in a statement.
Prices for regular unleaded in Massachusetts range from $2.11 to $2.45, with midgrade unleaded at $2.51; premium unleaded at $2.62; and diesel, $2.44.
