About to pull the trigger and purchase an older self serv with a 16 foot wide (interior dimensions) by 80 foot tunnel. wash has strong demographics as follows.
15,000 1 mile
130,000 3 miles
280,000 5miles
traffic count 50,000 day
wash is run down and tunnel equipment is 30 years old. Owner lost interest and wants to retire. Thinking of express conversion/free vacs/keep existing self serv.
We want keep existing structure and reload tunnel. Most tunnels seem to be around 18 feet wide. will 16 feet be ample. Anybody try this? Lots of expense for us to widen tunnel. Thanks in advance for your help.

as far as tunnel width, your absolutely fine. bare minimum is 14'-14' 6" depending on manufacturer
