FRAMINGHAM –  The average gas price in Massachusetts is down 4 cents from last week ($3.85), averaging $3.81 per gallon, said AAA Northeast, which has an office in Framingham.

Massachusetts’ average gas price is 15 cents higher than the national average.

“Although the national average has fallen sharply since the June peak of nearly $5.02, local prices are 30 to 40 cents higher than a year ago,” said Mary Maguire, Vice President of Government/Public Affairs for AAA Northeast, in a press release. “As we fuel up for Thanksgiving road trips, we can be thankful that gas prices are moving in the right direction for now.”

AAA Northeast’s November 22 survey of fuel prices found the current national average to be 11 cents lower than last week ($3.77), averaging $3.66 a gallon.
