Glasgow residents are being warned of several road closures this month as production of season two of Crime begins in various city locations.
The show is based on Irvine Welsh’s novel and features Scottish star Dougray Scott as troubled detective DI Ray Lennox.
Scott’s performance in the first series recently landed him an international Emmy nomination for Best Performance by an actor.
He will be leading a star-studded cast of British talent, including Joanna Vanderham and John Simm, in the follow-up, due to air on ITV’s new streaming service ITVX in 2023.
The council has granted permission for filming – set to kick off on Saturday – and issued a list of road closures for residents and drivers to be aware of.
From 3pm on November 5 until 1pm on November 6, the following roads will be closed to the public:
- Bell Street between Candleriggs and Walls Street
- Albion Street between Bell Street and Trongate
- Hanson Street at Hanson Park
- The full length of Shuttle Street and College Street
From 10am until 1pm on November 6, Shuttle Street at the junction of College Street will be off limits.
Filming will then take place later that day between 5pm and 7.30pm at:
- Hanson Street
- Hanson Park
Between 3pm on November 8 and midnight on November 9, production crews will be making use of:
- Claremont Place between Woodside Terrace and Claremont Terrace Lane
- Claremont Terrace between Claremont Place and property number five.
The same locations will be used between 3pm on November 14 and midnight on November 16.
Final filming will take place from 3pm on November 17 until 1pm on November 18 at Greendyke Street between London Road and Charlotte Street.
Emergency services vehicles will be exempt from these restrictions as well vehicles needed on set which have been approved by the council.
