Several major roads in downtown D.C. will be closed for part of the day Saturday during a movie production and filming.

It is unclear what movie is being filmed — but an avid WTOP listener noticed what appeared to be a motorcade staging near the FBI headquarters on Pennsylvania Avenue:

Between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., the following streets will be closed:

  • Pennsylvania Avenue between 14th Street, NW & 3rd Street, NW
  • Independence Avenue between 14th Street, SW & 7th Street, SW
  • Constitution Avenue between 7th Street, NW & 3rd Street, NW
  • 12th Street between Constitution Avenue, NW & Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
  • 3rd and 4th Street, NW/SW, between Pennsylvania Avenue, NW & Independence Avenue, SW

D.C. police said the public should expect parking restrictions and refer to posted emergency and parking signage.

Cars parked in violation of such signs will be ticketed and towed.
