In new street additions, Sofia and Begusarai both built increasingly disconnected streets over time, while Antalya fluctuated in street-construction patterns. For the full street network, though, all three cities follow the same trend. Notably, Antalya had a more sprawly network than Sofia in 1975, but the two have since reversed their relative ranking.
