Weston Field in Scranton: location and visitor planning

Weston Field is at 982 Providence Road, in Scranton rather than Dunmore. The City of Scranton is responsible for the facility, and its Parks and Recreation Department is based there.

The field is described as having been built about 1916 and named for Charles Weston. Its address is the clearest starting point for mapping a route; use Providence Road, Scranton, PA 18508 in your navigation.

Weston Field brings together indoor recreation, outdoor sports, and spaces for community activities. Its facilities include indoor and outdoor pools, a gym with cardio and weight equipment, outdoor basketball courts, a walking and running track, a soccer field, and a playground.

The facility also has a men’s steam room and spaces for meetings, gym rentals, boxing lessons, and birthday celebrations. Check which amenities are available for your intended visit before setting out; access to one part of the facility does not establish access to every other area.

Drivers can reach Weston Field on Providence Road, with different approach instructions given for travel from the north and south.

From the north

Take I-81 south to the Central Scranton Expressway (Route 307), then exit toward Providence Road at 7th Avenue. Continue on Providence Road; the fields are on the right past two traffic signals.

From the south

Take I-81 north to the Central Scranton Expressway (Route 307), continue to Jefferson Avenue, then follow the city-street route to the 7th Avenue exit and Providence Road. For more ways to make the journey between the two cities, see these practical transport options from Dunmore to Scranton.

A visitor listing reports free parking at Weston Field. Treat that as a useful indication, not a guarantee of current parking availability or access arrangements.

Hours can vary by amenity, and a third-party listing’s weekday hours are not confirmed by the City of Scranton or necessarily applicable to the pools, field, and other spaces. Check the official site before you go, especially if you are planning around a particular facility or activity.

For current access and program details, check with the City of Scranton. Confirm the details for the specific amenity you plan to use rather than assuming every area follows the same schedule.
