==Future== In August 2011, a bill was introduced in the Puerto Rico Senate to build a new highway that would take over some of the traffic currently on PR-132. The new road may start off at PR-500 and connect to PR-127. The proposed road would also take over some of the traffic currently on PR-2.<ref>{{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20160304093428/http://www.elsuralavista.com/periodico/?p=41908 ''Senador Seilhamer propone corredor del Sur.'']}} El Sur a la Vista.
