Gasoline prices in Virginia have fallen by an average of
seven cents per gallon since last month.
AAA officials say Virginians are paying 17 cents less than
the national average.
The average price of a gallon of unleaded gasoline in
Virginia was $3.17 on Tuesday, down from $3.24 a month ago.
AAA Mid-Atlantic reports that prices are expected to
continue to decline because of sufficient supplies, weaker demand, more
affordable winter-blend gasoline and lower crude oil prices.
