Gas and diesel prices up ahead of long weekend

It will cost more to put fuel in your vehicle for your long-weekend road trip.

There were long lineups at the pumps Thursday ahead of the provincial regulator’s price adjustment at midnight.

Self-serve regular gas has gone up nearly 7 cents per litre for a minimum of $1.57 in Nova Scotia.

Diesel has gone up about 2 cents to $1.71. This comes after an increase of 9 cents per litre earlier this week due to the interrupter clause.
