Jeremy Renner Paramount+ TV show filming to shut down Route 51 bridge for a day

To allow for filming of the TV show "Mayor of Kingstown," the Rochester-Beaver Bridge on Route 51 between Bridgewater and Rochester will be closed April 19.

The bridge will remain closed from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Detour signs will be posted to help motorists navigate the area.

"The closure of the bridge for this special event is necessary in order to ensure the collective safety of all involved," a public notice from local law enforcement said. "While we understand that this closure may inconvenience some commuters, please know that every effort is being made to minimize disruption and ensure public safety. During the closure, alternative routes have been designated to redirect traffic and appropriate detour signage will be in place to guide motorists.

"Multiple boroughs and police jurisdictions have worked together to ensure a safe and smooth experience for all. We wish to thank the community for its patience and cooperation during this event."

"Mayor of Kingstown," streaming on Paramount+, is a crime thriller starring Jeremy Renner, who earned Academy Award nominations for "The Hurt Locker" and "The Town."

Season Three of "Mayor of Kingstown" has been filming in McKees Rocks and surrounding areas.
