"By the book" policing in Hampshire


Recommended Posts

This info is a bit late as the things listed started about a week ago, but theres still 5+ weeks of "fun" still to go... heres the info...

 

 

Hampshire Police are filming a television series from 26th September for 7 weeks.

 

If you use the M27 or M3 this potentially effects you so please proceed with caution and pass onto anyone who you feel might need to know.

 

The program called Traffic Cops will be filmed covering the area from Ringwood concentrating on Ringwood M27 upto M3 J9 and a team working the ring road around Southampton (Totton will have a unit working it alone), Cosham M27 stretch to J5 of the M27 Southampton Airport turn off.

 

The fourth team is working from Winchester Services covering M3 to J10 M3 Winchester South, using five unmarked cars, two black Skoda 03 Registration Octavias, an 05 plate dark red mondeo and two Volvo saloon cars. The BBC unit are going to be based out of a unit in Milbrook Road in Southampton and will also be covering the armed police response unit and the Southampton Airport Police Security / British Transport Police team. The BBC team are in Citroen Picasso MPV's leased from Arriva.

 

To make it more effective Traffic police have authority from the Chief Constable to "work to rule". So instead of the usual laid back approach of Hants traffic police this will be a lot more concentrated to make it effective filming.

But if it's being filmed I could get on my http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/1106.gif but it will probably be like http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/wallbash.gif
