Denver 311: asking the city for help

How to reach Denver's 311 line and report a pothole, an unshoveled sidewalk or another city problem.

Last checked November 15, 2026

Denver is a city and a county in one, so 311 is the place to start for most city services. For an emergency, always call 911.

How to reach 311

  • Phone: dial 3-1-1 in Denver, or 720-913-1311 from outside Denver.
  • TTY (hearing impaired): 720-913-8479.
  • Online: report a problem through the city's website, denvergov.org, or its pocketgov service.

What you can report

  • Potholes: report online, or call 311.
  • Unshoveled sidewalks: if a sidewalk near you is still not cleared more than 24 hours after a snowstorm, call 311 with the address.
  • Ice in the street or gutter: call 311 to report it.

Tips

  • From a phone outside Denver, or a phone service that doesn't connect to 311, use 720-913-1311.
  • Keep the case number so you can follow up.
