Robertson County, Tennessee – A staged emergency filming scene is scheduled Saturday evening along Tom Austin Highway, drawing emergency vehicles to a public area overnight.
According to Robertson County Emergency Medical Services, a film production will take place near the Farmers Bank location on Tom Austin Highway, just west of Memorial Boulevard. Filming is expected to begin around 6 p.m. Saturday and may continue until approximately 4 a.m. Sunday.
Officials said the production will involve staged emergency scenes, including the use of emergency vehicles, which may appear to some residents as an active emergency response. Authorities emphasized that no real emergency is occurring at the location during the filming.
The notice was issued to prevent confusion and unnecessary emergency calls from residents or passersby who may observe flashing lights, parked emergency vehicles, or simulated response activity during the overnight hours.
Traffic impacts were not specified, but motorists traveling along Tom Austin Highway near Memorial Boulevard late Saturday night and early Sunday morning may notice increased activity associated with the production.
County officials encouraged the public to remain aware of the filming schedule and reassured residents that emergency services remain fully available to respond to real incidents elsewhere in Robertson County if needed.
The filming coincides with improving weather conditions following recent winter weather, which officials referenced as a positive development heading into the weekend.
The area surrounding the Farmers Bank location is frequented by commuters and late-night drivers, making advance notice particularly relevant for those traveling through the corridor during overnight hours.
Residents with questions or concerns are advised to contact local authorities through non-emergency channels.
