Airspace restrictions are now in place over Bletchley ahead of the international Artificial Intelligence (AI) summit.
The summit will be the world's first and is being hosted by the government at the Bletchley Park on 1st and 2nd November.
The event will bring together world leaders, leading tech companies and researchers to agree safety measures to evaluate and monitor the most significant risks from AI.
Thames Valley Police is working closely with partners to ensure that the event passes safely with minimal disruption to the local community.
Until 29th October, there will be restricted airspace for drones, and in the week of the summit, 30th October to 3rd November, all aircraft will be restricted, except for emergency aircraft.
The flight restrictions being put in place covers a wide area around Bletchley Park.
More details can be found on the Civil Aviation Authority’s website.
Sergeant Rob Mann of the Joint Operations Unit said: “With the visit of dignitaries and leaders from around the world, we have a significant security operation in place.
“As is typical for events of this scale, we are putting in a significant airspace restriction to keep the summit and the local community safe.
“We will be operating police drones in the area to ensure that we have a bird’s eye view on the event and an eye in the sky.
“This is on top of several other security measures that you will notice in place around Bletchley Park and many more that you will not see.
“We will have tactics available to us to enforce these restrictions and deal with anybody who fails to adhere to the restrictions.
“If you notice anything suspicious in the air or on the ground, please report this to police. You can speak to an officer, make a report online or call 101. If something is taking place now, always call 999.
“We are absolutely committed to keeping delegates at the summit, and our local community safe, before, during and immediately after the summit, and restricted airspace is one of many tactics our security operation has in place to ensure that we do so.”
Road closures and restrictions are also in place while the summit takes place.
