Route 114 down runs 35 to 40 minutes outside summer, longer once the harbor fills and boat trailers queue for Colt State Park. The Mount Hope Bridge is what we watch closest. A car that quits mid-span has no shoulder, so it gets hooked and off the deck first.
Off the bridge the work changes. Roger Williams University on Old Ferry Road means dead batteries, lockouts and cars pulled off lots at move-in. Hope Street covers the commercial calls. Historic district streets are narrow and parked tight both sides, so a flatbed can't always reach your door — we winch out and load at a wider corner.
Bridge calls, campus lots and parade-day tows
My car died on the Mount Hope Bridge. Should I get out?
Stay belted in with hazards on unless there's smoke or fire. Tell us which way you're heading and how far across — that decides which end we come from.
My car got towed on the Fourth of July. Where is it?
Parade enforcement is town-directed, so it isn't automatically at our lot. Call and we'll point you at the right one. Bring registration and matching ID.
