The highway system in Puerto Rico was established in 1952 and is maintained by the Puerto Rico Department of Transportation and Public Works (Departmento de Transportación y Obras Públicas). The highway system in Puerto Rico is divided into four different classes: the Primary Network, the Urban Primary Network, the Secondary Network, and the Tertiary Network (Spanish: Red Primaria, Red Primaria Urbana, Red Sucandaria, and Red Terciaria, respectively). Highways may change between networks and retain their same numbers.

There are three officially designated Interstate Highways in Puerto Rico. As with Interstate Highways in Alaska and Hawaii, these routes do not connect to the United States Interstate Highway system, but still receive funding in a similar fashion to the Interstates in the contiguous US.

As with Interstate routes in Alaska (but not Hawaii), they are unsigned Interstate routes. The designated routes of the three routes — officially PR-1, PR-2 and PR-3 — run along various combinations of Puerto Rico routes. They do not follow the rules of even and odd numbers determining direction.

Puerto Rico's interstate highways are not entirely controlled-access. Speed limits are limited to 55 mph (90 km/h) to 65mph (106 km/h). Puerto Rico's superhighways are the Autopistas, which are not funded by the Eisenhower Interstate System, but by a system of tolls.

Route Length Termini
PRI-1 71.08 mi 114.39 km Ponce, PR-2 to San Juan, PR-2 (PR 22/PR 18 interchange)
PRI-2 138.13 mi 222.30 km Ponce, PR-1 to San Juan, PR-3 (PR 1/PR 26 interchange)
PRI-3 40.56 mi 65.27 km Ceiba / Roosevelt Roads Naval Air Station to San Juan, PR-2 (PR 1/PR 26 interchange)
