Route description
[edit]It intersects several important highways and streets in the metro area, including Las Américas Expressway (PR-18), Juan Ponce de León Avenue (PR-25), Trujillo Alto Expressway (PR-181) and PR-8. After the intersection with PR-181, it becomes a very short freeway and part of it is a toll bridge (the longest bridge above water in the island) called the Teodoro Moscoso Bridge, which is tolled with $3.80. After the bridge, it makes a final intersection with Román Baldorioty de Castro Expressway (PR-26) before becoming the road to the airport.
