Six new Perry Barr street names to reflect community and Commonwealth Sport values | Birmingham City Council

Six new roads forming part of the Perry Barr Residential Scheme have been officially named.

They were selected through a contest in which members of the public were invited to submit their suggestions and ideas.

Louise Kilbride of Handsworth Wood impressed a panel of judges drawn from members of the local community, councillors and project officials with her submission - based on the theme of cohesion and shared values for Perry Barr and surrounding areas.

The names suggested for the six streets that will serve 1,400 much-needed homes are:

Diversity Grove
Equality Road
Destiny Road
Inspire Avenue
Respect Way
Humanity Close

I'm outraged from Woke Street.

Couldn't they find any council workers to name them after?

Nice and diverse.

Better than naming roads after councillors.

Destiny Road sounds like Doom Road for me, and for that reason I am out.

Birmingham the only place that looks better after a nuclear attack then before.
Oh and Swindon

You forgot Slough.

Kensington would be a nicer place.
