Drivers may not be feeling much relief at the pump, but gas prices are coming down.

AAA Massachusetts reported Tuesday that gas is now averaging $4.84 per gallon, down 8 cents a gallon from last week.

“The primary reason for the decline is lower demand at the pump as fewer people fueled up over the past two weeks,” AAA said. “The lull, however, could end with the arrival of the summer driving season.”

The average price is down 10 cents a gallon over the past month, but is $1.84 per gallon higher than at this time last year.

AAA’s Mary Maguire said about 80 percent of stations are now selling regular gas for under $5 a gallon.
