R1009 at Añasco Old Bridge - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

If coming from the south take road #2, after the Mayagüez town towards north and you should see the old metal bridge just before intersection with roads PR-109 (right towards Añasco town center) & PR-115 (left towards Rincón). You will have to make an U-turn at the intersection to take a small paved road to the right, just straight ahead is the old metal bridge. The benchmark is at the other end of the bridge, to the side nearest road #2 (to the left), just before the concrete rail ends. About 100 feet from the bridge to the left side.

If coming from the north take road #2 and continue to Mayagüez, at the intersection with road PR-109 (left to Añasco town center) & PR-115 (right towards Rincón) keep right toward a small paved road beside PR-2. That is the old road and goes straight to the old metal bridge. The benchmark is at the other end of the bridge, to the side nearest road #2 (to the left), just before the concrete rail ends. About 100 feet from the bridge to the left side.

Please do not park at the side of PR-2 at the other end of the bridge, the traffic is dangerous at that point.
