Across the bridge from the station, Metro Express route 460 offers service to the Disneyland Resort and Knott's Berry Farm in Orange County, Express route 577 provides service to both El Monte Station and California State University, Long Beach.

One of the major criticisms of the C Line is that it doesn't extend to Metrolink's Norwalk/Santa Fe Springs station, located 2.8 miles (4.5 km) to the east.

The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) 2009 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) lists funding priorities to build through year 2040 – the C Line east extension is not a funded project in the Metro's 2009 LRTP and is instead in the Tier 1 Strategic Unfunded Plan.

[10] The station has a bee theme, a nod to the indigenous place names for Norwalk, Sejat, Sejatngna and Sehat, which meant “Place of the Bees.” Artist Meg Cranston used this historical reference as her inspiration to create her artworks collectively called “Suka: Place of the Bees.” The art pieces include a large bee sculpture for the entry to the parking lot, smaller bee sculptures are beneath the station canopies, a bee motif silkscreened onto the elevator glass, honeycomb pattern (hexagonal) wall tiles and paving patterns, and bronze tiles on the platform reference ancient coins which featured the honeybee.
