The recent October Nor’easter required the Wayland Public Safety Departments to utilize the Swiftreach Emergency Notification Services system several times.  Feedback from residents has been positive, however, not all residents received the calls.  To address this issue, a link has been added to the Police Department page of the town’s website, which will allow residents to enter and edit their contact information.   We recommend that residents add a mobile phone or work number to the database.  To enter your information, go here, go to the bottom of the page, click on the Emergency Notification Services box and fill out all the required fields.   The information will then be reviewed and added to the system call list.  We will continue to update the system to provide the community the best possible emergency notification services.
