Nova Scotians seeing a jump in fuel prices overnight

By CityNews Halifax Staff

Another jump at the pump in Nova Scotia.

The provincial regulator pushed the price for self serve regular gas up by 6.5 cents overnight.

As a result, gasoline will now cost 183.7 cents per litre.

Meantime, an even bigger hike on the diesel side with that fuel going up to 181 cents a litre.

That is an increase of 8 cents.

Twelve months ago, Nova Scotians were paying 1.82 for gasoline, 1.81 for diesel.
