Monday, February 28, 2022 at 6:51 AM

Gas prices reach their highest levels since the fall of 2014.

(AAA MICHIGAN) - Gas prices in Michigan are up 18 cents compared to last week.

Drivers are paying an average of $3.55 at the pump for a gallon of gas.

AAA says surging oil prices have put upward pressure on Michigan pump prices. Russia is the second largest oil producer globally and prices are expected to increase as the situation in Ukraine continues.

We are now seeing the highest prices since 2014.

The most expensive prices are being seen in Saginaw, Lansing and Benton Harbor. The cheapest prices were reported in Traverse City, Metro Detroit and Ann Arbor.
