BREAKAWAY CLAMP FOR ROADSIDE POLE
A breakaway pole including an elongated pole body extending between a bottom end and an upper end and a base connected to the bottom end of the elongated pole body. The base includes an interior flange having at least one slot. The breakaway pole includes a breakaway clamp mounted on the at least one slot of the interior flange of the base. The breakaway clamp includes a nut and a clamp body. The clamp body has a tapered main body and two lateral breakaway flanges. The lower portion of the tapered main body is positioned within the slot of the interior flange of the base. The two lateral breakaway flanges extend laterally outward from the upper portion of the tapered main body so that the two lateral breakaway flanges contact the interior flange of the base laterally beyond the at least one slot.

SAFE ZONE POST ASSEMBLY
A safe zone post assembly for supporting delineators or signage installed within a curb safe zone along the vertical wall of the median or curb at a location between the surface of the roadway, or the gutter, up to a location where a vehicle tire contacts the median or curb during impact. Securing the post assembly anchor bolt and base attachments along the vertical wall substantially within the curb safe zone, provides additional protection from vehicle impacts for the base of the post assembly. A post supporting the delineator or signage is secured within the post assembly.

REFLECTIVE TRAFFIC CONTROL MARKER
A traffic control marker is provided and described herein. The traffic control marker can be configured with a main marker body that is flexible and durable, the main marker body can be further configured with a reflective element that covers at least a portion of the main marker body. The main marker body can further be configured with an indentation or a channel that extends a portion of or alternatively the length of the main marker body. The reflective element is configured to be protected during a vehicle impact with the traffic control marker, such that at least a portion of the reflective element remains effective and reflective after the impact.
Sign post assembly with impact absorbing mechanism
A sign post assembly includes a core assembly. The core assembly includes an impact absorbing mechanism and an elongated post. The impact absorbing mechanism includes an anchoring plate including a through hole, and a first elastic impact absorber. The elongated post has a proximal end and a distal end. A flange is disposed at the distal end of the post and rests on a top surface of the first elastic impact absorber with the post extending through the through hole in anchoring plate. A dimension of an outer surface of the post is less than a dimension of an inner surface of the through hole and the flange has a peripheral shape that prevents the flange from passing through the through hole.

PARKING METER POLE
A pole mounting system can be configured as a center drawn mounting system which allows the user to securely mount and adjust the inner stanchion in various rotational orientations about the vertical axis. The system also allows any electrical wiring or other conduit to be run up inside of the pole. Once the inner stanchion is fastened in place, the outer stanchion fits over top with a first disc on the outer stanchion interlocking with a disc recess on the inner stanchion, thereby preventing the outer stanchion from twisting with respect to the inner stanchion. Once a locking bolt is in place, the parking meter is fastened to the top of the outer stanchion. The present system is tamper resistant because the electrical wiring or conduit and the mounting hardware are not externally accessible once installation is completed.
