Waterway® Carwash, setting the standard in the carwash industry for 40 years, is pleased to announce the first Waterway Express is now opening in the City of St. Louis. The new location is 2261 S. Kingshighway, on the northwest corner of Kingshighway and Southwest Avenue, the site of a former BP gas station.

Waterway Express opened the weekend of July 20, 21 and 22 with free carwashes to the public. Customers could get acquainted with this new service from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

The Waterway Express, featuring a double-tunnel concept, is the first Express to open in the five cities Waterway serves. Providing busy people with the convenience of an efficient car wash, the drive-through car wash features a high-capacity wash, multiple self-vacuum stations and competitive pricing. Waterway Express is committed to the same great Waterway experience that customers have come to know and expect.

“This is an exciting concept for Waterway with its sole focus on fast and friendly service,” explained Waterway President and CEO Bob Dubinsky. “And we really do mean unbelievably fast! Our experienced Waterway staff will be out there on site at all times to offer assistance to customers.”

Waterway has invested $4.5 million in improvements to the site, which includes bioretention basins as well as LED lighting for the entire facility. An estimated 20 jobs are being created.

Waterway welcomes this opportunity to broaden its reach and return to South City. The company worked closely with the Hill 2000 Association and incorporated many of community’s suggestions into the final plan.
