An overlay adds a new area code to an existing geographic region. This means that two area codes will work in the same general area. New customers would be assigned the new area code. In some circumstances, customers may be able to choose between the old area code and the new one.

An overlay is the addition of a new layer of asphalt to the street (approximately two to three inches thick). Typically, heavily used streets and severe deterioration are the reasons why a street would be overlaid.
