Kim,
When this question has been asked before I've suggested constructing 3' wide beds but folks with a lot more experience than I always assure the person asking that 4' is the perfect width for tomatoes in raised beds.
All my tomato beds are 4' wide but I honestly feel a double row of indeterminate plants are just too crowded. For sure, you can stagger the tomatoes which works fine on paper but is a lot harder to do when you're actually planting!!
At some point I'll replace my 4' wide tomato beds with two 3' wide beds. Hopefully, sooner than later!
