772 McCain’s Backpack Cabinet Giveaway offers traffic agencies within the United States and Canada the opportunity to win a free deployment of McCain’s smallest ATC Cabinet.
McCain will work with the winner to select a single suitable location, as well as to help prepare and field deploy one cabinet.

The contest is open until 23 September.
