It wasn’t much, but drivers in Nova Scotia saw a small bit of relief at the gas pump on Friday morning.

At midnight, the provincial regulator lowered the price for self-serve regular by 1.4 cents, bringing the minimum price down to 1.57.

However, the price of diesel increased slightly. Fuel moved up by 7-10ths of a cent to 173.2.

At this time last year, drivers in the province were paying 1.60 for gasoline and 1.98 for diesel.
