WASHINGTON (AP) — Motorists in Delaware region are paying seven cents less at the pump compared to a week ago.

AAA Mid-Atlantic said Sunday in a weekly report that the average price of a gallon of regular gas in Delaware is $3.69. That's compared to $3.76 a week ago.

Still, motorists in the state are paying more than a year ago. At this time last year Delaware drivers were paying $3.42 per gallon.

The price of gas in Delaware is a penny more than the national average. AAA says the lower price is part of a seasonal price decline.
