CAMBRIDGE — There was time dislocation and traffic disruption in the downtown Galt area of Cambridge Wednesday as television crews filmed episodes of the Murdoch Mysteries.
The Main Street bridge was closed for filming, along with Water Street between Main and Dickson streets, as costumed characters and area residents with cellphones mixed. Road closures began at 11 a.m. Wednesday and lasted until 1 a.m. Thursday.
Until 5 p.m. crews dressed the bridge and street to look like 1898, including horses and carriages and actors in costume. Filming was from 5 p.m. until 1 a.m.
There was extensive lighting and simulated (but relatively quiet) gunfire on the bridge.
Waterloo Regional Police were to supervise traffic for most of the day.
