Low gas prices are motivating millions of Americans to travel this Independence Day, according to AAA of WNY.

Despite recent seasonal increases, gasoline prices remain well below recent years. The national average price for a gallon of gasoline is $2.31, which is 47 cents less than one year ago. Buffalo’s average is $2.40, while Rochester is $2.37.

AAA expects most U.S. drivers will pay the lowest Independence Day gas prices since 2005.
