Question

How do i request the city to block off a street for filming?

Answer 1

The best starting place is the city's department of transportation. Ask them what the procedure is to obtain a permit to close the street. Every city has different procedures, usually the DOT or police department issues permits and some cities have permit or event departments that handle it.

Expect to pay for all costs involved.

Answer 2

Check if you have a film office in your city they will take care of all the details and tell you what you need to do.
