Please join us to celebrate the completion of WYOways, Wyomissing and West Reading’s Official Bike and Pedestrian Route, with a free, community group ride on October 9, 2021 at 10:00 am! Please click here for more information about the event.

The park trail which runs from Wyomissing Boulevard along Parkside Drive North towards the Museum will be closed until Friday, September 24, 2021. Please click here to see the trail closure on the parklands map.

The trail behind the pool from Old Mill Road going towards Old Man Echo has reopened, but residents are asked to still use caution as the terrain is a little rough.

You may have noticed the recycling mailer that was sent out by J.P. Mascaro, increasing the type of items that can now be recycled. The Borough of Wyomissing is pleased to announce that we are now participating in the Flexible Plastic Packaging Program offered through J.P. Mascaro. What has changed? You are less restricted to the items you put in your recycle container, empty bottles, containers and packaging need to be thoroughly washed out, and due to the light-weight items now accepted, we ask that residents utilize the lids provided with your recycling cans.
