That storm moved through quickly—but it definitely left a mark.

Our Tree Department is out now working through the cleanup, including downed trees at Dauphin & Evans and along Orchard.

If you’re out driving around tonight, please use caution and give our crews plenty of room to work. They’re moving as quickly and safely as they can to get things cleared.

BOIL WATER ADVISORY HAS BEEN LIFTED.

The Borough of Wyomissing Public Works Department has lifted the boil water advisory for the Greenwood Mall area.

Test results have been received and confirmed that the water meets safe drinking water standards.

Residents and businesses in the affected area may resume normal water use. Boiling water is no longer necessary.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation while our Public Works team worked through the repair, flushing, testing, and required follow-up with our independent water testing group.

The Borough of Wyomissing Public Works has issued a boil water advisory for the Greenwood Mall area only following a water main break over the weekend.

During the repair process, water pressure was lost in the system. When that happens, there is an increased risk that contaminants could enter the water system.

Until further notice, please do not drink the water without boiling it first.

Bring all water to a rolling boil for one minute, then let it cool before using. Bottled water may also be used.

Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation.

Our team has flushed the system and is working with our independent water testing group for sampling, testing, and updates. Once the required test results come back clean, we will notify the affected area and share an update that the advisory has been lifted.

This advisory is limited to the Greenwood Mall area only.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as our team works through this process.
