Grant Park, IL – Drivers in Grant Park may face minor inconveniences today and tomorrow as Apple films driving scenes in the area. According to the Grant Park Police Department, the production will result in temporary road closures but is not expected to involve actors or large crowds.
Police said the filming will run both days, September 21–22, with some local roads blocked to accommodate camera crews and vehicle scenes. While no specific streets were listed, authorities advised residents and commuters to allow extra time when traveling through Grant Park.
The department emphasized that delays should be minimal, with closures lifted once filming is complete. The announcement noted that disruptions will mainly involve detours and short-term blockages rather than long-term closures.
Local residents expressed curiosity online after the notice, with some welcoming the excitement of a major studio filming in town, while others raised concerns about potential traffic backups during the weekday commute.
Drivers are encouraged to follow posted detours and watch for officers directing traffic near filming areas. Updates will be posted to the Grant Park Police Department’s Facebook page as filming continues.
