In new street additions, Ordu fluctuated in its street-construction patterns, while Lübeck built increasingly disconnected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then improved and Mahoba built increasingly disconnected streets over time. For the full street network, though, all three cities follow the same trend. Ordu and Mahoba have been growing further apart in their street-network character since 1975.
