In new street additions, Una fluctuated in its street-construction patterns, while Birma built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1976-1990, then shifted to more disconnected patterns and Ponggok built increasingly disconnected streets over time. For the full network, Una became progressively more disconnected, while Birma became more connected from 1975 through 1976-1990, then grew more sprawly from 1976-1990 onwards and Ponggok became progressively more disconnected. Una and Birma have been converging in their street-network character since 1975.
