It originates in Belize City, runs west through Hattieville, the Belize Zoo, the capital city of Belmopan (northern outskirts), San Ignacio, San José Succotz (across the river from Xunantunich archaeological site) and terminates at the Guatemalan border at Benque Viejo. The highway bisects the country and ties the eastern and western parts of Belize together. A new steel bridge over Beaver Dam Creek was constructed to replace the broken concrete one. The highway was built in the 1930s and was originally known as the Western Highway.[1] It was renamed the George Price Highway in 2012, after the late former prime minister who led the country to independence in 1981.[2] Junction list
