Pole mounting system and method

A pole mounting system for attaching one or more auxiliary equipment items to street poles, said system comprising a pair of substantially part cylindrical clamps, said clamps including tightening means to advance said clamps towards each other and thereby grasp an elongate pole having a longitudinal axis about a substantially transverse cross-section thereof wherein each of said clamps includes a plurality of spaced apart locator sites positioned on a radially inner surface of each said clamp and extending substantially around the entirety of the inner surface, said locator sites opening in a direction substantially parallel to said pole axis and wherein each of said auxiliary equipment intended for attachment to said street poles includes an upper engagement portion having at least one aperture alignable with a corresponding locator site opening on one of said clamps for receiving a locking pin to extend through said aperture and into engagement with said corresponding locator site opening whereby each said item of auxiliary equipment can be temporarily supported by inter-engagement of said locking pin through said upper engagement portion aperture and corresponding locator site opening, and the radial positioning of said auxiliary equipment item verified before each said auxiliary equipment item is finally secured to said clamps via said selected one locator site.
