Grubhub, DoorDash shut down NYC operations as city enforces travel ban during 'historic' blizzard
"Grubhub told FOX Business it will shut down service in both New York City and New Jersey at 7:30 p.m. ET on Sunday and will remain closed overnight. "We will re-assess in the morning," a company spokesperson said, emphasizing that the safety of its delivery partners remains the company's top priority. DoorDash confirmed to FOX Weather that it will halt service citywide beginning at 8:30 p.m. ET Sunday - 30 minutes before the city's 9 p.m. travel ban takes effect."
"Service is expected to remain suspended until at least noon on Monday. DoorDash said the early suspension is intended to ensure orders are completed and delivery workers are safely off the roads before streets officially close. "New York City is bracing itself ahead of a historic blizzard - the first in nearly a decade - with a foot of snow or more and dangerous wind gusts expected," a DoorDash spokesperson told FOX Weather."
Grubhub will suspend service in New York City and New Jersey at 7:30 p.m. ET Sunday and remain closed overnight, with a reassessment planned in the morning. DoorDash will halt citywide service beginning at 8:30 p.m. ET Sunday, potentially earlier if conditions worsen, and expects suspensions to last until at least noon Monday. Both companies cited delivery partner safety and coordination with a 9 p.m. citywide travel ban. A bomb cyclone is forecast to bring life-threatening blizzard conditions, with wind gusts up to 60 mph and localized snowfall exceeding two feet across parts of the I-95 corridor.
