History
The entire length of PR-633 is part of the western section of the old Road No. 20, a highway that led from Naranjito to Ciales through Corozal and Morovis until the 1953 Puerto Rico highway renumbering, a process implemented by the Puerto Rico Department of Transportation and Public Works that increased the insular highway network to connect existing routes with different locations around Puerto Rico. Route 20 was divided into two segments: the first one, from Naranjito to Corozal, and the second one, from Corozal to Ciales. The first section corresponds to the current PR-164 from PR-167 to PR-159, while the second one went to Morovis through PR-159, beginning at its junction with PR-568 in western Corozal to continue to Ciales through PR-155, PR-633 and PR-6633 until its end at PR-6685.
