582 area code to join 814, requiring 10-digit dialing

JOHNSTOWN, Pa (WJAC) — Have you started using all 10 digits when you make a telephone call?

Starting Saturday, you will have to dial 814 before any number you call, or you will get a recorded message prompting you to hang up and redial with the area code.

This is ahead of the new 582 overlay area code which will be assigned to new telephone numbers once the available supply in the current 814 area code is exhausted.
