Suppose you call the station alongside the canal "North strand", with an entrance on the North strand. That way it opens up another area of the city, including Croke Park to rail travel.

Strikes me that an elevated walk way as far as the Dart platforms at Connolly would be the way to go. The distance is only 250 meters which is a 3 minute walk, so I don't think a travelator would be required. Many London underground walking connections are longer.

People wanting to access the IFSC can stay on the train as far as Docklands.

The connection would be most useful to people who want to transfer to the Dart.
