BR decided that it's post war growth didn't need to maintain it's grid pattern. Really screwed everything up.
I think the issue was that no one "decided" and the developers just did whatever they wanted. BR went from 34,000 people in 1940 to 125,000 in 1950. By 1980, it had 220,000 people living there. That's the kind of population growth that requires great planning and extremely fastidious management.
