Gas prices in Halifax Regional Municipality inched back up Friday following a drop on April 1.
The Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board made its weekly adjustment at midnight, raising the price of regular self-serve gasoline to 149.3 per litre.
That’s an increase of 2.8 cents from earlier in the week, when the price fell to 146.5 as the elimination of the federal carbon tax took effect Tuesday.
The cost of diesel was unchanged at 161.2 per litre.
At this time last year, regular gas was 172.1 and diesel was 188.1.
