In new street additions, Curup fluctuated in its street-construction patterns, while Changling built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then shifted to more disconnected patterns and Rugao built increasingly disconnected streets over time. For the full network, Curup and Rugao both became progressively more disconnected, while Changling became more connected from 1975 through 1991-2005, then grew more sprawly from 1991-2005 onwards. Curup and Changling have been converging in their street-network character since 1975.
