context_page_description: National Route 170 is a national secondary road of the Philippine highway network. It passes through the northern part of Metro Manila, traversing through the cities of Quezon City, Manila, and Pasay.
context_section_description: After leaving the Welcome Rotonda, N170 enters the City of Manila, the nation's capital, as España Boulevard. It is a major highway in the district of Sampaloc that is named after Spain, which ruled the Philippines for 333 years, from 1565 up to 1898. It is an arterial road with eight lanes, four per direction, that commences at Welcome Rotonda and ends at the intersection of Nicanor B. Reyes (formerly Morayta) and Lerma Streets. The Nicanor B. Reyes Street leads to Recto Avenue, while Lerma Street leads to Quezon Boulevard. The University of Santo Tomas (UST) campus lies on this segment of N170.
  N170 follows Lerma Street, which links España Boulevard and Quezon Boulevard. After leaving Lerma Street, N170 is known as Quezon Boulevard, a notable intra-city highway that traverses the district of Quiapo from north to south. A 6-to-10-lane divided road, it links the traditional core of the nation's capital with the North Luzon Expressway in northern Metro Manila through Alfonso Mendoza and Dimasalang Streets. It also links the old downtown of Manila with Quezon Memorial Circle and Batasang Pambansa Complex in Quezon City through a tunnel that goes to the rest of northern N170. It also lies in an area known as the University Belt.
