Border Traffic:
Both the Mexican and Canadian borders are open but operating in a high security mode. This means that all shipments are subject to full inspection at the border. Delays at both the Mexican and Canadian borders are to be expected. Truckload and LTL carriers are making pick-ups as usual and are moving freight to the border for crossing.

LTL/LCL:
Carriers are making pick-ups as usual, with the exception of the North Jersey/New York City area. Freight destined to these areas is being picked-up and either held at origin or moved to the closest terminal and held for delivery. Most carriers are expecting a one day delay on most traffic. Some carriers have instituted restrictions on new business expecting increased volumes from diverted air freight.

Truckload:
Carries are operating under normal conditions with the exception of freight originating or terminating in the NY/NJ area. Delays are on a case by case basis.

Rail/Intermodal:
All rail traffic was shut down yesterday. Most operations were back up and running early today. The terminals in Northern New Jersey have just re-opened in the last hour. Expect 48-72 hour delays as the shut down may cause major congestion at the terminals and delays in grounding containers.
