They won't let you through the gate without a pass and you have to reverse into the spaces for 'elf n safety reasons. Bizarre I know, but its stricktly enforced and they revoke your pass if you don't comply.Originally posted by MaryPoppins View PostHas anyone worked at the National Grid site in Warwick?

Used to have the reverse parking policy at a couple of defense clients so you can drive out quickly if needed to evacuate the area. Not sure why they would need this at Nat Grid.
