GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Tommy’s Express is working to bring two new car washes to Grand Rapids.

The Holland-based car wash company is looking to build a car wash at 1216 Leonard St. NE near Fuller Avenue, and another at 487 28th St. SE near Madison Avenue.

Both projects are in the early stages of development, a Tommy’s Express spokesperson told News 8 in an email, and the company is working on permitting with the city.

There is no set timeline for either location yet.

Tommy’s Express previously said it is expected to open between 40 to 50 locations this year. At least 15 of those are planned for Michigan, according to its website.
