History edit
PR-103 is the old road from Hormigueros, passing through the center of Cabo Rojo, until the PR-101 (which connects from Boquerón to Lajas). Therefore, the PR-100 is a road to replace PR-103 because it is a faster and more comfortable road.[4][5]
Major intersections edit
The entire route is located in Cabo Rojo.
