Binghamton Gas Prices Still Falling

Gasoline prices in the Binghamton region have plunged by more than 30 cents a gallon over the past two months.

Pump prices for regular gas were around four dollars a gallon across Broome and Tioga counties in mid-February.

Since then, the prices at some gas stations have dropped by as much as 35 cents a gallon.

According to gasbuddy.com, several Broome County stations had posted prices for regular at or below $3.60 a gallon.

A year ago, some local stations were selling gas for around $4.10 a gallon.

Industry observers says gasoline supplies in the United States are higher than usual for this time of year. There also have been no major oil production disruptions in the Middle East in recent months.
