  • Batavia – $2.25 (up 4 cents since last week)
  • Buffalo – $2.19 (no change since last week)
  • Rochester – $2.21 (no change since last week)



Despite the holiday weekend with many people traveling, gas prices remain steady across the U.S. and across the local region. In fact, motorists are seeing some of the cheapest summer prices than they have in recent years. The national average is 58 cents less than last year while the New York State average is 63 cents cheaper than last summer at this time. AAA continues to see motorists requesting maps and tour books for summer road trips as cars are the most popular form of
travel this summer.



AAA reminds travelers to plan any road trips in advance and to use AAA’s Covid-19 Travel Restrictions Map and TripTik.AAA.com to prepare for the latest state and local travel restrictions.
