Get used to dialing a new area code in the region starting in June
Get ready to start representing the 548.
Southwestern Ontario is getting a new area code in June of 2016 according to the Telecommunications Alliance. For years we have been the 519, then more recently the 226 and now the new area code for the region will include the 548. The new area code will be used in Woodstock, Stratford, London, Brantford, Guelph, Kitchener-Waterloo, Owen Sound, Sarnia, Windsor and surrounding areas.
The new area code is the result of an increased demand for communication services and technologies in the region according to the Telecommunications Alliance.
