Filming & photography on the roads
We are the Highway Authority for London's red routes. You need to get permission from us before you start to film or photograph on our network.
This is true for everyone, no matter what subject is being filmed, the equipment being used, or size of crew.
Check your location
Use the map below to find out if we are the authority for the road you want to film or photograph on.
All red routes are marked on the map. All other roads are managed by the local borough - you need to contact them directly for the permission you need.
