If we glean the information that has been made public so far it is not hard to see up to four crossings:

the 468 interchange on the turnpike when (if) it is opened would be a perfect time to restructure the roadway to accommodate golf cart traffic near the large commercial that is planned,

the Baily bridge is the most obvious as they own one side already and will likely own the other in the not to distant future,

the extension of Buena Vista down to 468 that is being looked at would be a northern route across,

and the newest possibility would be a modification of the infrastructure at SR470 near the Leesburg expansion since they will own land on both sides of the Turnpike here when this deal is closed.
Good point on ALL that the developer will be doing...be patient folks as the information will evolve as we "need to know".
