Route description
The bypass goes to Comerío and Guadiana barrio from PR-5 because PR-167 between Bayamón and Naranjito has many curves. Originally PR-148 also ran to west from its junction with PR-5 and PR-826 to the former PR-147 near the downtown Naranjito to improve the access from the east because PR-164, like PR-167, has many curves in Barrio Nuevo area.[3] Actually the former PR-147 and the east–west section of this route is now part of PR-5.
