 There is no freeway/expressway to the west, due mainly to the fact that there is no sufficient population west of Caguas to develop a new freeway or expressway; good access to the municipalities of Cidra(southwest) and Aguas Buenas(northwest) are possible via PR-172 and PR-156, respectively.Puerto Rico Highway 52 connects Caguas to the north (San Juan) and south (Cayey, Ponce).Puerto Rico Highway 1 is an alternate route to San Juan and Guaynabo with two lanes per direction; in south Caguas it becomes rural near "Borinquen", therefore the only good access to Cayey is the expressway (PR-52) and a $1.00 toll has to be paid (only in the south direction).
