This is an island platform running approximately northwest/southeast with the northbound, platform 1 lying southwest of the southbound, platform 2.
There is tactile paving along the edges of the platforms.
There are four passages between the platforms, each of which leads to 20 steps to/from the intermediate level.
Take the first turning right, then right again and down a flight of steps to platform level. Platform 1, northbound, is to your right, you're near the rear of the train. Platform 2, southbound, is to your left, you're near the front of the train.
Take the first turning left (passage 3) then turn left again and go down a flight of steps to platform level. Platform 1, northbound is to your left, you're near the front of the train. Platform 2, southbound, is to your right, you're near the rear of the train.
The second passage from the foot of the escalators (passage 4) is also an entrance, again you'd turn left then left and go down a flight of steps to platform level.
The official exit is passage 5, which is the second passage from the rear of northbound, front of southbound trains.
