Uber customers may soon be able to hail a New York City cab through the app, thanks to a partnership between the ride-share company and two taxi-hailing platforms.

As part of the deal, Uber will work with companies Curb and Creative Mobile Technologies to list all New York City taxis on its app, the Wall Street Journal reported today (March 24).

Some New York City taxi drivers, too, are struggling to earn a living due to outstanding debt and competition from ride-hailing apps like Uber.

While Uber has already partnered with taxi services abroad, this is the first such citywide partnership in the US.
