THE FILMING of scenes for the next instalment of the Shetland crime drama will continue in Lerwick tomorrow (Tuesday 15 April).

A stop/go traffic management system will be put in place to allow short traffic holds on Irvine Place and Commercial St at the junction with Irvine Place between 4pm and 6pm.

These holds will be kept to a minimum and traffic will be allowed to flow as normal once the holds are released.

There will also be some parking restrictions on Irvine Place to keep the area clear of vehicles for continuity.

Also on Tuesday Commercial St will be closed at the junction with the A969 heading towards The Queens Hotel. This closure will take effect between 6pm and 8pm.

Vehicles will be able to enter from the east, from the junction of Lovers Loan and Twageos as SIC have allowed to rescind the one way to allow vehicular access.

The production team apologises in advance for any inconvenience these restrictions may cause.

For further queries regarding any of the upcoming restrictions, please contact assistant location managers Andy “Mod” Ross (07963 713 446 or jamiros@aol.com) or Lyall Gair (07786 653 859 or lyallgair@yahoo.co.uk).
