A system and related methods for concrete with an embedded aesthetic element includes a concrete structure having at least one surface with at least one molded shape. An aesthetic element is formed from a plastic material. The aesthetic element is at least partially embedded within the at least one molded shape of the concrete structure. The aesthetic element has at least one of: a color, a texture, a lighting, a visual appearance, or a textual appearance which differs from the concrete structure. At least one fastening device is connected between the aesthetic element and the concrete structure.

A display sign is for a central reservation barrier in some examples. It has a base to engage a barrier in a manner which envelopes the top surface and downwardly on the opposed side walls. A display with display elements provides information for drivers, and a display drive apparatus is mounted to the base and rotates the display about a vertical axis extending from the base. The drives can have a very low profile, with components being offset with respect to the display longitudinal axis. The drive provides that the display is aligned with a barrier in use when not required but is turned to an optimal angle for visibility by drivers according to the driving conditions. The drive brings the display back to the default in operative position when there is a power outage.

A mounting system for attaching a sign to a sign support post comprises a first clamp plate member and a second clamp plate member, each shaped to conform to an exterior of the tubular support post and configured to securely engage the tubular support post, a first plurality of lugs projecting from the surface of the first clamp plate member, a second plurality of lugs projecting from the surface of the second clamp plate member, a plurality of fasteners each configured to pass through a first lug and a second lug to securely fasten the first clamp plate member to the second clamp plate member around the support post, a first tube member fixed to the first clamp plate member, and a second tube member fixed to the second clamp plate member, wherein the first tube member and the second tube member are configured for attachment of the roadway sign.
