Vancouver-area drivers are paying more than ever before, as the average price climbed to a record high on Friday.
On average, the cost at Metro Vancouver pumps was up to 176.9 cents per litre. Prior to this new record, the highest average price was 173.9 cents back in July.
It’s not only a high price for the region, but it’s high for this time of year.
Around this time last year, drivers were paying less than 130 cents per litre at local pumps.
