Puerto Rico Highway 891

Puerto Rico Highway 891 (PR-891) is the road that goes to downtown Corozal, the administrative center of Corozal, Puerto Rico. With a length of 1.8 km, this road can be seen as the Alt 159, since it was the original alignment of PR-159 through the municipal center.

Route description

Then, it crossess the Río Corozal, a tributary of the Río Cibuco, and enters the city center, where it meets with PR-821 and PR-807 around the town square. After those intersections, PR-891 heads to the east, leaving the downtown area until its end at PR-159 in eastern Barrio Pueblo.

History
Like a part of PR-159, the entire length of PR-891 is part of the old Road No. 10, a highway that led from Dorado to Coamo through Toa Alta, Corozal and Orocovis until the 1953 Puerto Rico highway renumbering, a process implemented by the Puerto Rico Department of Transportation and Public Works (Departamento de Transportación y Obras Públicas) that increased the insular highway network to connect existing routes with different locations around Puerto Rico. Route 10 extended from PR-165 (old Road No. 2) near Toa Alta to PR-14 (former Road No. 1) in downtown Coamo. Its original way currently corresponds to PR-165, from PR-8865 in Dorado to PR-159 in Toa Alta; PR-159, from PR-165 in Toa Alta to PR-568 in Corozal, except in downtown area, where PR-891 replaces PR-159; PR-568, from PR-159 in Corozal to PR-5155 in Orocovis; PR-5155, from PR-568 north of downtown to PR-155 south of downtown, and PR-155, from PR-5155 in Orocovis to PR-14 in Coamo.
