The newest of the county’s limited-access routes, and the one where drivers are most likely to find the exits further apart than they expected.
On the shoulder right now? Get out of the traffic side of the vehicle, put your hazards on, and if you can do it safely, stand well back from the road behind a barrier. Then call (636) 466-8097 and tell us the highway, the direction you were traveling, and the last exit or mile marker you passed. That is all we need to find you.
Highway 364 is the western extension of Page Avenue, crossing the Missouri River from St. Louis County into St. Charles County and running west through St. Peters and Cottleville toward O’Fallon, where it connects into Highway 94 and the Hwy K area.
It is a limited-access highway built to move commuter traffic quickly between St. Charles County and west St. Louis County, and it does that well. The trade-off is fewer exits and less margin when a vehicle starts to fail.
Exit spacing. This is the recurring theme. Drivers used to city streets assume there will be somewhere to pull off shortly. On 364 there frequently is not, and a car that is limping does not make it.
High sustained speeds. It is a fast road with good sightlines, which means tire failures and mechanical problems happen at speed.
Commuter peaks. Like I-64, the volume concentrates into two windows a day, and an incident during one of them produces a long backup.
The river crossing. It is another bridge, with the same implications: a company based on the other side has to get across it to reach you, and we do not.
Newer road, older assumptions. 364 is relatively recent, and both drivers and navigation apps sometimes treat it as something it is not.
If the car is running badly and you are on 364, take the next exit. Do not wait to see whether it improves. The next opportunity may be several miles further on, and the shoulder is a considerably worse place to sit than a gas station lot. If it is already too late, call (636) 466-8097.
Tire failures, overheating in commuter traffic, and collisions at highway speed are the bulk of it. We also see a fair number of out-of-fuel calls here for exactly the reason above — the station a driver was aiming for turned out to be further than they thought.
The corridor also carries commercial traffic between the two counties, so work vans and service vehicles are well represented. See commercial and fleet towing.
Highway work is different from a driveway. Traffic is moving fast, the shoulder is narrow in places, and the priority is getting you and the vehicle off the road before anything else. Our drivers are insured, our trucks are marked, and we work highway calls every week across St. Charles County.
Whether it ends up being a tire change, a jump start, fuel, a winch-out, accident recovery or a straight tow, one call covers it.
We also run I-70, I-64 / US-40, Highway 370 and the Discovery Bridge, Highway 94 through the wine country, Highway 79 north along the river and the Blanchette Bridge.
Fast road, few exits. One number, any hour.
