Georgia gas prices continue to decrease.

Motorists are now paying an average price of $1.63 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline.

Monday’s state average is 4 cents less than a week ago, 26 cents less than last month, and $1.09 cents less than this time last year.

Pump prices have consistently declined for nine weeks as Americans follow stay at home orders and crude prices remain low due to COVID-19.

Since last Monday, the national average for a gallon of regular gasoline has decreased by 4 cents to $1.77.

Local averages Monday morning, according to AAA, were $1.44 in Floyd County, $1.45 in Bartow County, $1.53 in Gordon County, $1.50 in Chattooga County and $1.69 in Polk County.
