It seems odd to restrict outgoing punters to the choice in the departure
hall, if there's a wider choice by including the arrivals hall.

They're clearly concerned about people not understanding that they have to
go to the new departures hall in order to buy tickets or get on a train.
Given the propensity of the travelling public to completely ignore signs
and directions, that's probably reasonable in the short term.

But there's a (possibly temporary) passage from the arrivals hall to the
departures hall, which currently makes that the best way to get from the
original ticket hall to the departures hall.

There are people with "foam fingers" trying to dissuade you, but I think
they protest too much!
