The Sabre Springs/Peñasquitos Transit Station was constructed to serve the needs of the undersized “park and ride” facility previously existing at this location on Interstate 15 in central San Diego County. The 4-level parking structure containing 540 stalls was designed to allow users easy access to an expanded parking supply directly off the nearby freeway.

With a single parking ramp and state-of-the-art electronic stall status signage, the design allows users to enter and quickly find parking. A notable feature of the design is the glass-wrapped elevator core and adjacent stair which is easily recognizable from both the interior of the garage and the surrounding site, facilitating clear pedestrian circulation to and from the garage.

On the site outside the garage, an additional 90 parking spots on the surface lot have been provided, as well as an area for dropping off bus riders at the pedestrian plaza directly accessing the newly reconfigured bus terminal. Sustainable features integrated into the project include photovoltaic electric generating system, bio-filtration, 10 electric vehicle charging stations, smart parking system, free-standing bicycle storage and repair workstation, and LED lighting. Designed to have minimal impact on the surrounding community, the finished project has been a welcome amenity for users and residents alike.
