Street and lane closures for filming in Anaheim require a film permit with a traffic control plan, posted parking notices, and Anaheim Police coordination, with tight rules near resort and stadium zones.
Productions that need to close a street, lane, sidewalk, or remove on-street parking in Anaheim must include a traffic control plan prepared to California MUTCD standards with the film permit. Temporary No Parking signs must be posted at least 24 hours before the closure. Full street closures typically require certified traffic control officers and Anaheim Police approval, especially near the Anaheim Resort District, Platinum Triangle, Angel Stadium, and Honda Center. During Angel Stadium or Honda Center events, large convention center shows, or peak Disney arrival and departure windows, street closures may be denied or time-restricted. Rolling road blocks for picture cars on freeways require California Highway Patrol coordination separate from the city permit. Emergency vehicle access must be preserved at all times and fire lane obstruction is prohibited. Additional fees apply for police services, traffic engineers, and public works support.
