The Bacolod North Road is a 163.52-kilometer (101.61 mi), two-to-six lane major north–south lateral highway that connects the city of Bacolod to the city of San Carlos in Negros Occidental, Philippines.
The road is a component of National Route 7 (N7) of the Philippine highway network and the Western Nautical Highway of the Philippine Nautical Highway System.
Route description
True to its name, the road connects Bacolod downtown to the northern and eastern coastal municipalities and cities of Negros Occidental up to San Carlos, where the province also shares its boundary with Negros Oriental.
The road starts at the kilometer zero of Negros Occidental in front of the Negros Occidental Provincial Capitol in downtown Bacolod as a continuation of Bacolod South Road. There, it assumes the local name Lacson Street and is part of N7. It then traverses Talisay (where it is locally known as Mabini Street and briefly splits into two as it crosses Catabla River), Silay (where it is locally known as Rizal Street), E. B. Magalona, Victorias (locally known as Osmeña Avenue), Manapla, Cadiz, Sagay, Escalante (where it turns west at the Escalante City Rotonda), Toboso, Calatrava, and finally San Carlos. In the San Carlos city proper, it is locally known as C.J. Ledesma Avenue. The road terminates approximately at the provincial boundary with Negros Oriental, where it is continued by Dumaguete North Road.
History
The road was historically part of Highway 1 that inscribed Negros incompletely. A new bypass road in Manapla was later built and forms the current alignment of the road.
Intersections
Intersections are numbered by kilometer post, with Negros Occidental Provincial Capitol in Bacolod designated as kilometer zero.
