Paid for contentTraffic restrictions for action shots to be filmed

FOLLOWING a short break in filming further scenes for the upcoming Shetland crime drama will be captured at two locations on Thursday (26 June).

Some traffic restrictions will be in place to allow for safe filming. A stop/go traffic hold will in place on the A970 between Eela Water and East Burn Woods starting at 12 midday and lasting until approximately 4pm.

During this period traffic may be asked to stop for short periods so to enable safe drone shots of ‘action vehicles’ travelling through the landscape.

Traffic may be asked to stop to allow the drone to take off or land safely.

 

Also on Thursday, a stop/go traffic hold will be in place between Skellister and Dury on the B9075. This will operate between 12pm and 4pm.

This is to allow for safe drone shots of ‘action vehicles’ travelling through the landscape.

The production team is apologising for any inconvenience either of these restrictions may cause.

Any queries should be directed to assistant location manager Andy ‘Mod’ Ross,  07963 713 446, e-mail: jamiros@aol.com or assistant location manager Lyall Gair, 07786 653 859, e-mail: lyallgair@yahoo.co.uk
