The supplier may be contacting districts and asking to be included on upcoming projects. These systems are expected to perform acceptably and should be considered for inclusion on projects.

Note: TxDOT policy does not allow the use of experimental systems on projects with:

  • over 50,000 square feet of MSE wall,
  • walls over 25 feet tall, or
  • walls supporting or immediately adjacent to interstate highways.
