Abstract
An advertising medium includes a frame enclosing a traffic signal control cabinet. Tie rods extend between lock devices, which are secured to rails of the frame such that removing the frame from its position around the cabinet is prevented. As a result, advertising material may be secured to a traffic signal control cabinet without intruding upon or modifying the cabinet.
