Who thinks of the names of streets or roads?!


Question: Who thinks of the names of streets or roads!?
Answers:
It's usually the town planning firm that has to come up with new names!.

Every municipality has its own set of by-laws and standards!. For instance, no swear words, or blasphemous words or anything that may cause offense may be used!. Its usually preferred that the list of names should be of one subject, and has reference to either the specific location or country (e!.g!. botanical trees, mountain ranges, previous kings & queens, etc!.)

If a person's name is used, it should rather be someone that's already passed!. If it's someone that's still alive, that person may do something that offends people and that street name should then be renamed!.

And if you wanted to meet an actual person who thinks up street names, here I am!Www@Enter-QA@Com

Usually Street names are decided on by the community who live there!.
A survey is done with several options to choose from!.
If the area traditionally has street names of flowers, only flower names will be there to choose from, and so on!.!.!.
Now from that survey, the Town Council will then decide on a suitable name for that new street!.!.!.
BUT!.
There are some areas where the Town Council have what is called a public survey, but it is done in such secrecy that the community actually does not even know that there was a survey to begin with!.
The Town Council puts up a notice on the notice board in the Municipal building only and because no one ever reads it, no one actually knows!. By the cut off date the notice is removed and the Town Councillors choose a name which they feel comfortable with, like the name of a politician or co-councillor!.!.!.
So it is not always a fair public decision, but is supposed to be one!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The local Council, or the developer of the estate!.

Unless its a Motorway, then this has to fit the numbering system, that will be down to the Government!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I'm not sure!.
But in the last town I lived in, there was a road called Spionkop!.
There was a police station down that road, so I'm guessing that some guy used to 'spy on the cops' from thereWww@Enter-QA@Com

A lot of the time the government names them!. But you can also adopt a road and name itWww@Enter-QA@Com

Around here they name them after rich dead people or after families that have been in the area for eons!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
