The national average price of on-highway diesel has soared by 9.9 cents, hitting $3.905 per gallon, marking the most substantial one-week increase since March 2022.
This significant leap comes after a week of no price fluctuation, as reported by the Energy Information Administration (EIA). All ten regions surveyed by the EIA noted a rise in diesel prices.
