MADISON, WI (WTAQ) – Gas prices are on the decline in Wisconsin despite an indefinite shutdown of the only pipeline sending fuel from Milwaukee to Green Bay to serve the northern part of the state and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
Triple-A puts the average price in the state at two-dollars-40-cents, down six-cents from last week and 37-cents less than last year.
Madison has Wisconsin’s lowest average price at two-24, while drivers in Green Bay pay the most at two-48.
A spokesman for GASBUDDY.COM says prices might continue to slowly drop in the weeks ahead barring any unforseen problems with refineries in the midwest.
