Area code 506 3779346 222614670 2008-06-30T07:40:17Z 70.48.40.40 /* Rate centres and exchange codes */ '''Area code 506''' is the telephone [[area code]] in the [[Canada|Canadian]] province of [[New Brunswick]], encompassing the whole province. The code was created sometime during 1955, when New Brunswick and Newfoundland (including Labrador) split from the 902 area code; Newfoundland (including Labrador) split to its own 709 area code sometime in early 1962. The incumbent local exchange carrier in 506 is [[Aliant]] (part of the Bell Aliant income trust), which was produced from a merger that included [[NBTel]]. Since 2005, local telephone service through [[EastLink (company)|Eastlink Communications]] has also been available in the town of [[Sackville, New Brunswick|Sackville]]. Additionally, +506 refers to the international access code to [[Costa Rica]]'s telephone numbers. == Rate centres and exchange codes == [[Alma, New Brunswick|Alma]] '''(506)'''-887<br>
