No comment whatsoever from Brummies management. Expand Well, rightly or wrongly, you have made it appear that you are just a troublemaker. I suspect that is why they haven't answered. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianbuck Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Birmingham City Council in conjunction with the company redeveloping parts of Perry Barr, launched a competition a few months back, to find names for the six new roads which are being created on the site of the old University. The names, so they said, should reflect the history and current status of Perry Barr! So what have they come up with? - Diversity Grove, Equality Road, Destiny Road, Inspire Avenue, Respect Way and Humanity Close - all fully reflective of the district!!!!! Comments made by the seven judges were: "We were impressed by the creativity and range of names." "The names are a true reflection of both Perry Barr and the City." "The names in the winning entry just stood out." Who were the judges? Waseem Zaffar, Morriam Jan, Zulfigar Khan, Lincoln Moses, Aisha Masood, Anna Evans and Rebecca Farr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
