Sapwi Trails Community Park

A Multi-Use Community Recreation Space

Sapwi Trails Community Park in Thousand Oaks, CA is designed to support a wide range of outdoor activities for individuals and families. Precision provided cost estimating services throughout the design and development of this expansive park, helping ensure that the City of Thousand Oaks could deliver a high-quality, budget-conscious facility that meets the needs of a diverse community.

Envisioned as a dynamic space for play, exercise, and connection with nature, Sapwi Trails includes a bicycle skills course, a disc golf course, trails for pedestrians and cyclists, and open-space areas for play and relaxation. The park also incorporates sustainable landscaping elements, stormwater management systems, and drought-tolerant plantings to support environmental stewardship.

Precision’s role was vital in the pre-construction phase, delivering detailed cost estimates that informed the project’s design decisions. This included estimating costs for site grading, utility infrastructure, trails, parking areas, play features, and shade structures. Precision also evaluated value engineering opportunities and provided budget forecasting to support phased development.

Sapwi Trails was designed with community in mind—offering accessible amenities for all ages and abilities, while preserving the natural topography and enhancing native habitat areas. With scenic views, nature-based play areas, and passive recreational zones, the park invites both adventure and quiet enjoyment.

Thanks to the city’s vision and Precision’s collaboration with the design team, Sapwi Trails now stands as a regional destination for outdoor recreation and environmental education. The park demonstrates how thoughtful planning and accurate cost estimating can deliver impactful results that serve public needs while remaining financially sustainable.
