Highbury Vale Branch platform. The tram in the distance is just about to join the main line to the city. Between the two platforms is a small open space, and on the connecting footpath is a display indicating which platform to go to for the next city tram. On leaving the platform for Phoenix Park, trams join a single track section

Depending on their origin (Hucknall or Phoenix Park), city-bound trams may call at either the Branch or Mainline platform at Highbury Vale. In the open space between the two island platforms is a Passenger Information Display which shows an arrow pointing to the platform for the next Station Street tram
