Hitting the road is going to be pricier than usual for drivers this week as Ontario gas prices shoot up to the highest price in years.

Dan McTeague, gas analyst and president of Canadians for Affordable Energy, said in a tweet on Monday that prices will rise another three cents, hiking up to 141.9 cents per litre by Wednesday.

McTeague told Narcity that the sudden increase will result in the province's highest per litre gas prices since June 22, 2014.

The spike will affect most of Ontario's major cities, including Toronto, Barrie, London, Windsor, Kitchener, Hamilton and Kingston.

The cost of gas had previously risen by five cents last Friday, moving up to 140.9 cents per litre, before dropping again.
