Improvements to PR-2 intersections with PR-102, PR-3108, mayagüez terrace, PR-239 (PR-2R) and luis llorens torres ST., mayaguez, PR- contract unit 1C

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $20 million to the Puerto Rico Highway & Transportation Authority on August 12, 2025, under the Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects program (CFDA 20.934) to improve a 0.65-kilometer roadway segment on State Road PR-2 in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. The design-build project will enhance intersections with PR-102, PR-3108, Mayaguez Terrace, PR-239, and Luis Llorens Torres Street (San Juan Street) through comprehensive roadway and multimodal infrastructure improvements.

The project scope includes construction of east and west frontage roads, bicycle lanes, pedestrian infrastructure, sidewalks, handicapped-accessible ramps, curbing, concrete barriers, drainage systems, highway lighting, traffic signals and signage, pavement markings, modular concrete retaining walls, and landscape reforestation. Additionally, the project will manage the relocation of utilities operated by PREPA (Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority), PRASA (Puerto Rico Aqueducts and Sewers Authority), and local telecommunications providers, with coordinated traffic management during four construction phases. These improvements are designed to enhance safety, accessibility, and multimodal transportation connectivity in the project area.
