DENVER (KDVR) -- A new area code will be issued for phone numbers in many areas in Colorado next year.
The 303 area code is loved by Coloradans, so much so that there is an unofficial holiday and festival dedicated to celebrating 303 every March 3, or 3/03.
These Colorado laws go into effect on July 1The state has other recognizable area codes like 720 and 970; however, the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies' Public Utilities Commission said phone numbers with the 970 area code are expected to run out by the first quarter of 2026.
That's when the new area code, 748, will begin to help alleviate the high demand for new phone numbers.
Existing phone numbers will not be impacted by the new area code, which is set to overlay the existing 970 region. According to a press release, some areas with the new code will include:
Aspen Breckenridge Durango Estes Park Fort Collins Glenwood Springs Grand Junction Greeley Loveland Silverthorne Steamboat Springs VailColoradans who request new service or an additional line may be assigned the new area code starting as soon as July 7, 2025.
The price of a call and what is considered a local call will not be affected. More information can be found on the PUC website.
