772 McCain is to upgrade San Francisco’s traffic signal infrastructure through the introduction of 400 M advanced transportation controller (ATC) cabinets over the next three years.

Reza Roozitalab, McCain’s vice president of hardware engineering, says: “Our M ATC cabinet features two front side-by-side doors, ideal for areas with narrow sidewalks so maintenance teams can work inside without completely blocking the walkway.”

Also, the M ATC cabinets feature a ‘lamp out monitoring algorithm’ which identifies an intersection where signals have failed and can fix them.

San Francisco plans to place a battery back-up system to help keep intersections running in the event of a power outage.

As part of the contract, McCain will also deploy 140 Caltrans-style ATC cabinets – including the 352i and the 350i for LED intersections.
