Puerto Rico Highway 633 (PR-633) is an east–west rural road located between the municipalities of Ciales and Morovis in Puerto Rico.[3] With a length of 4.3 km (2.7 mi), it begins at its intersection with PR-149 in Hato Viejo barrio and ends at its junction with PR-155 in Barahona.[4]

Route description

Due to its rural characteristics, PR-633 consists of one lane per direction for its entire length. In Ciales, it extends from PR-149 intersection to the Morovis municipal limit, making its way through Hato Viejo barrio.[5] In Morovis, PR-633 extends to the east within Barahona barrio from the Ciales municipal limit until its eastern terminus at PR-155 junction.[6] In both municipalities, this highway serves as the main access to several neighborhoods and sectors between PR-149 and PR-155.

History

The entire length of PR-633 is part of the western section of the old Road No. 20, a highway that led from Naranjito to Ciales through Corozal and Morovis until 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. Route 20 was divided into two segments: the first one, from Naranjito to Corozal, and the second one, from Corozal to Ciales.[7] The first section corresponds to the current PR-164 from PR-167 (old Road No. 9) to PR-159 (former Road No. 10),[8] while the second one went to Morovis through PR-159,[9] beginning at its junction with PR-568 (old Road No. 10) in western Corozal to continue to Ciales through PR-155, PR-633 and PR-6633 until its end at PR-6685 (former Road No. 11).[2]
