Puerto Rico Highway 821 (PR-821) is a north–south road located in the municipality of Corozal in Puerto Rico.[3] With a length of 6.0 km (3.7 mi), it begins at its intersection with PR-891 between downtown Corozal and Barrio Pueblo, passing through Abras barrio until its terminus at PR-630 near Mavilla barrio of Vega Alta municipality.[4]

Route description

[edit]

This highway consists of one lane in each direction for most of its length, except in the southern terminus, where Calle San Ramón is a one-way street with a single lane from Calle Colón to PR-891.[5] After that, PR-821 heads to the north, meeting with PR-159 on its way to Abras.[6] Between Barrio Pueblo and Abras, PR-821 becomes rural, connecting several neighborhoods and sectors until its transition to PR-630 near the Vega Alta municipal limit.[4]

History

[edit]

Prior to its numerical designation, PR-821 was only known as Camino del Abra. The current numerical designation corresponds to the 1953 Puerto Rico highway renumbering, a process implemented by the Puerto Rico Department of Transportation and Public Works (Spanish: Departamento de Transportación y Obras Públicas) that increased the insular highway network to connect existing routes with different locations around Puerto Rico.[2]

Major intersections

[edit]

The entire route is located in Corozal.
