It solely depends on the context.
Using "the" indicates that you are refering to a particular town with some sort of special implication.
To illustrate a bit:
"I'm almost at home." vs "I'm almost at my home."
The latter emphasizes the ownership of the place mentioned.
In short:
It is correct, but the "the" isn't necessary, unless there is something special about "the" town you're referring to.
