Never worked for the Grid but did share the building while at Accenture a few years back. Parking was flipping rotten but you could park on the road of the estate. otherwise for Accenture it was a trot down to an overflow public park that used to flood...Originally posted by MaryPoppins View PostHas anyone worked at the National Grid site in Warwick?

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. Please don't tell me it is just to save accidents by people reversing out in to things!Originally posted by Project Monkey View PostThey won't let you through the gate without a pass and you have to reverse into the spaces for 'elf n safety reasons.
