Texas Gas Prices Creeping Closer To Record Highs

IRVING, Texas —

Gasoline prices are creeping closer to record highs in several Texas cities.

The weekly AAA Texas gasoline survey released Friday says the average price of a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline increased 5 to 7 cents in many areas of the state over the past week. The agency says prices are within 15 cents of the records in Dallas, Fort Worth, Galveston and Houston.

Overall, the state averaged increased 4 cents to $3.80 per gallon. That's $1.05 more than a year ago and 18 cents shy of the record of $3.98 in July 2008.

The Dallas-Fort Worth area had the most expensive gas in the state at $3.85. The lowest price of $3.73 was shared by several cities.

The state average is 11 cents below the national average of $3.91.
