And of course as mentioned there is planned to be remodeled train and bus stations, a bit more substantial that what there is currently. I would imagine they'd put in some additional parking for the stations, probably no longer free which would be the bummer for current users. Hopefully it'll be reasonable and not the 10/day like South Norwalk.

I would also imagine they'll need to be more creative with the traffic signaling to keep cars flowing.

I also feel they will be installing more bike lanes. Not just on Glover which is a short "ave" but around Northern Norwalk in General leading to Glover to encourage more bike commuting to the station.

They really need to improve the tracks between Merritt 7 and South Norwalk. The train crawls atleast halfway and can take 20 minutes sometimes between stations in the same town.
Could also use a walk bridge connecting the train station to the office buildings instead of train people having to walk all the way around

Agreed, that's a great idea.
