Yodock Barriers for Traffic Control and Perimeter Protection
Yodock water filled barriers can be used across highway projects, construction zones, that require reliable lane separation and perimeter protection. Because they ship empty and are filled on site, Yodock barriers simplify transport and deployment compared to solid barriers while still providing substantial weight and stability once filled.
Yodock barriers are FHWA accepted and tested for use in approved configurations, meeting state and federal requirements for their intended applications.
Yodock Water Barrier Key Features and Specifications
Yodock water barriers are commonly used as longitudinal channelizing devices to separate traffic lanes and protect pedestrian paths. Known for their interlocking design and durable polyethylene construction, Yodock barriers connect quickly to create continuous barrier lines used in highway projects, bridge construction, roadway detours, and work zone protection.

Yodock 2001MB
Yodock 2001M
Overview
The Yodock 2001 is the tallest model in the system and is commonly used on highway projects requiring higher containment and TL-3 performance.
The Yodock 2001MB is designed for projects requiring additional ballast weight while maintaining the same barrier footprint as the 2001M.
The Yodock 2001M provides a lower profile configuration while maintaining strong performance for temporary traffic control setups.

Yodock Water Barricades FAQs
1. Are Yodock barriers MASH tested or FHWA approved?
A: Yes. Yodock barriers are MASH tested and are available in either TL-2 or TL-3 configurations depending on the specific model and setup. They are also FHWA accepted when installed in approved configurations. Always verify project requirements with the governing agency or project engineer before installation.
2. How much does a Yodock water barrier weigh when filled?
A: The filled weight of a Yodock water barrier depends on the model. For example, the Yodock 2001 can reach approximately 1500 pounds when filled, while smaller models such as the 2001M and 2001MB range between 750 and 900 pounds when filled with water.
3. Are Yodock water barriers able to replace concrete barriers?
A: Yodock water barriers can replace concrete barriers in many temporary applications, particularly where ease of transport is a priority. They are commonly used for temporary traffic control, phased construction projects, and perimeter setups facing traffic. However, for certain high speed roadway lane delineation projects, concrete barriers may still be required depending on the bid specifications and agency standards.
4. What are Yodock barriers used for?
A: Yodock barriers are water filled longitudinal channelizing devices used for traffic control, construction perimeters, roadway separation, and temporary security applications. A Yodock water barrier is commonly installed along highways, detour routes, bridge projects, and work zones to separate vehicles from workers and pedestrians.
5. Are Yodock barriers reusable?
A: Yes. Yodock barriers are designed for repeated use across multiple projects. Because they can be drained, transported, and redeployed, they are commonly reused on different construction or traffic control setups.
6. How are Yodock barriers connected together?
A: Yodock barriers connect through an integrated pin system that links each barrier unit to the next. This creates a continuous barrier line used to guide traffic and maintain alignment across work zones or roadway projects.
