Some callers to New Orleans 3-1-1 are getting an error message saying their call cannot go through. Anyone having issues reaching 3-1-1 can instead dial 504-539-3266, which will directly connect you to the same 3-1-1 Specialists (our 3-1-1 call-takers.)
This 3-1-1 connection problem is due to technical issues at a national wireless carrier, impacting customers of several brands of phones and wireless services. The carrier is working to resolve the problem as soon as possible.
This issue is not impacting all 3-1-1 callers, and there is no impact on calling 9-1-1 or 9-1-1 services.
