From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] San Juan to Guaynabo
In San Juan, near Trujillo Alto, it begins near PR-850 and PR-181 and goes through the exclusive Paseos area, goes west, intersecting Puerto Rico Highway 1, Puerto Rico Highway 52 and Puerto Rico Highway 20. It approaches downtown Guaynabo. Several schools can be found along the way.
[edit] English Use
Guaynabo is a town which is colloquially known as "Guaynabo City", and it has a large number of supporters of statehood for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Almost every government agency in Guaynabo is switching to English, and roads are not the exception. After PR-199 passes by the Centro de Bellas Artes and intersects Puerto Rico Highway 837, there can be board reading "West 199", "JCT" and similar.
[edit] Bayamón
Puerto Rico Highway 199 begins again at Puerto Rico Highway 5 and ends near Puerto Rico Highway 167.
