Gas Prices Map For Charlotte

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Drivers in the Carolinas are feeling the effects of the region’s big pipeline problem.

Commuters saw sticker shock at the pump on Monday, and some may have a headache finding any gas at all.

A leak earlier this month caused the closure of a key pipeline that carries gas to the eastern United States, a disruption that’s already causing inconveniences for consumers in the region.

Gas prices have gone up approximately 20 cents in the area.

Six states across the region — Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia — have declared states of emergency, relaxing limits on fuel transportation to try to stave off shortages and price spikes.
