The price of diesel went up overnight after the Utility and Review Board invoked its interrupter clause to change the price early this week.
Diesel increased by 6.6 cents a litre and now goes for a minimum of $1.68.5 in Cape Breton.
Only the price of diesel was adjusted last night over what the UARB calls a significant change in the price of diesel on world markets.
Gas still goes for a minimum of $1.58.4 a litre in Cape Breton.
