Michigan's gas prices inched up slightly this week, with motorists paying an average of 3 cents more for a gallon of unleaded regular gas.

"Drivers in Michigan saw higher prices at the pump over Memorial Day weekend," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. 

Metro Detroit's current average is $3.16 per gallon, about 5 cents more than last week's average but still 47 cents less than this same time last year. 

Benton Harbor, Lansing and Grand Rapids have the highest average gas prices in Michigan this week; Traverse City, Marquette and Metro Detroit have the lowest.
