Some New Brunswick drivers will see a break at the fuel pumps this week, according to an industry source.

Diesel users will see prices increase by around the same amount, according to the source.

Currently, New Brunswickers are paying a maximum of $1.56 per litre for regular self-serve, $1.62 per litre for diesel and $1.33 per litre for home heating oil.

In Nova Scotia, regular self-serve ranges from $1.51 to $1.55 per litre while diesel is selling for between $1.59 and $1.63 per litre.
