GATES OF WRATH

The big metal yellow gates at the end of Station Road, Brigg, have been rolled across again, meaning no vehicular access to the railway station today.
Anyone know why this gate is there and its purpose?
It obviously can't be with the intention of keeping travellers out.
Brigg railway station's position is bizarre, to say the least. Money is currently being expended on doing it up, presumably in the hope of attracting more users. Yet there's a metal barrier to stop potential train-users driving up and taking a closer look at what's being done.
You can park your car on the North Lincolnshire Council offices side of the barrier and walk up to the station. That's if you can avoid all the muddy potholes and stones. But why put obstacles in people's way?
