Gas prices in Georgia continue to decrease after gas tax suspension

ATLANTA — Gas prices in Georgia are continuing to decline, according to data from AAA.

This decrease in gas prices comes after Gov. Brian Kemp announced a gas tax suspension two weeks ago to help Georgians impacted by Hurricane Helene.

As of Monday, Georgians are paying an average of $2.70 per gallon for regular unleaded gas, which is four cents less than a week ago and 29 cents less than a month ago.
