The approval was issued by the VTrans Construction & Materials Bureau, Materials & Research Section, and reviewed by the Agency's Subject Matter Experts as part of the VTrans Approved Products Program. Additional information about the program and the current APL is available on the VTrans Approved Products webpage.
Contractors and specifiers working on VTrans projects can now reference FODS Trackout Control Mats on the Approved Products List when a trackout control mat is called for under specification 755.15. Sourcing from the APL simplifies material selection and documentation on state-managed work.
FODS Trackout Control Mats are a reusable trackout control system designed to replace traditional aggregate construction entrances. As vehicles cross the mats, raised pyramids flex the tires to loosen mud and debris, which settles within the mat instead of being tracked onto surrounding roadways. With no aggregate to replenish or entrances to rebuild, the system provides consistent performance while reducing maintenance, labor, and material costs over the course of a project.
The system is designed for easy installation, maintenance, and relocation as project conditions change. With an expected lifespan of more than 10 years, FODS Trackout Control Mats provide a durable, reusable alternative to traditional aggregate entrances while delivering consistent trackout control throughout the life of a project. Multiple configuration options allow the system to adapt to a variety of jobsite conditions.

FODS Trackout Control Mats are listed on the VTrans Approved Products List under specification 755.15. Inclusion on the APL reflects that the product has been evaluated and accepted for use on VTrans projects and does not constitute an endorsement by the Agency.
