System and method for anchoring bollards and curbside features

A curb apparatus for anchoring a street feature to a street curb, the curb apparatus consisting of:

• (a) a horizontal plate for mounting the street feature to the curb apparatus, wherein the horizontal plate is planar and configured to be substantially parallel to the street curb when in an installed condition, wherein the horizontal plate has a first side and a second side opposite the first side, and wherein the horizontal plate has a first end and a second end opposite the first end;
• (b) a vertical portion connected between the first end and the second end of the horizontal plate, wherein the vertical portion connects to the second side of said horizontal portion proximate said first end so that a first portion of the second side of the horizontal plate extends between a first surface of the vertical portion and the first end of the horizontal plate and a second portion of the second side of the horizontal plate extends between a second surface of the vertical portion and the second end of the horizontal plate, wherein the vertical portion extends perpendicularly to the horizontal plate, and wherein the vertical portion consists of a plurality of apertures;
• and
• (c) a plurality of fasteners, wherein the fasteners enter respective ones of the apertures for securing the vertical portion to the street curb,
• wherein the horizontal plate further comprises a plurality of gusset plates, wherein the plurality of gusset plates extends from the second side of the horizontal plate between the vertical portion and the second end of the horizontal plate, wherein the first side of the horizontal plate receives the street feature, the street feature being a bollard, and wherein the plurality of gusset plates restricts lateral movement and bending of the horizontal plate, and the gusset plates are configured to be received in respective grooves created in the street curb.
