Roads Closed and Parking Reduced for R.I.P.D. Crews
Film crews released a shooting schedule, including closed roads in the neighborhood this week.

It might be exciting to shooting scenes from their upcoming film R.I.P.D., but for many residents, their presence is also a hassle.
Street parking on several residential roadways will be reduced or closed to accommodate the film crews, as of Monday and continuing on through Saturday.
When the Charlestown Neighborhood Council met with film crews last week to go over the schedule, council members reportedly asked producers for $7,500 (at least) to compensate for the inconvenience. Patch called and emailed Bill Galvin, who headed the meeting, for a confirmation of the details, but he has not responded.

Producers have offered parking permits to affected residents, granting them a spot at Nautica Garage on Constitution Road. Boston.com reports that parking vouchers are limited and on a first-come, first-served basis.
You can email RIPDlocations(at)gmail(dot).com for details. (Send them your name, address, phone, and resident sticker permit number.) You can also call producers at 617-694-3134.
