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

Nice and diverse.

Better than naming roads after councillors.

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.
