Gas tax in Maryland to increase slightly on July 1
Maryland's gas tax will increase slightly to 46.6 cents per gallon starting July 1, driven by a 2.8% annual inflation rate. The increase is smaller than the 7-cent rise in 2023 and is offset by lower wholesale gas prices. The tax combines a fixed inflation-linked component and a variable component tied to wholesale prices.
