772 McCain is to deliver 1,500 advanced traffic controller (ATC) cabinets to Los Angeles. The company says these models include a 32-channel operation and safety enhancements for installers.  


The one-year project is an agreement with the City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADoT).

Traffic control cabinets come with computers and sensors which control traffic signal timing to help improve the safe movement of vehicles and people.

ATC standard cabinets feature a lamp-out detection functionality which sends a notification when signal lights fail. The system also triggers a flashing red light when an intersection's backup system needs repair.

These cabinets are also equipped to meet the meet emerging connected and autonomous vehicle requirements, the company adds.

McCain’s 351, 352, 356 and 357 models will be implemented in phases with the final number based upon LADoT's budget.

    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c
