Radial Road 6 (R-6), informally known as the R-6 Road, is a network of roads and bridges which comprise the sixth arterial road of Metro Manila in the Philippines.^[1] It passes through the cities of Manila, Quezon City, San Juan, Pasig, and Marikina, as well as Cainta and Antipolo in the province of Rizal, up to Santa Maria, Laguna and Infanta, Quezon.

R-6 includes the segment of Legarda Street from its intersection with Recto Avenue (C-1) and Mendiola Street to the Nagtahan Interchange.

Magsaysay Boulevard is a 6-8-lane main road in Manila. It starts at the Nagtahan Interchange in Manila and ends at the intersection with Gregorio Araneta Avenue (C-3) in Quezon City. It was formerly part of the Manila Provincial Road and called Santa Mesa Boulevard.

Aurora Boulevard is a 4-6-lane avenue in Quezon City and San Juan. Aurora Boulevard is one of the two roads that form the majority portion of the Radial Road 6 (R-6) in Metro Manila, passing through Quezon City and San Juan. Its western endpoint is at the border between Manila and Quezon City, and its northern terminus is at the intersection with Katipunan Avenue or C-5 Road. The avenue was a former portion of a highway connecting Manila to Infanta in Quezon, which was called the Manila Provincial Road and subsequently upgraded into one of Metro Manila's major thoroughfares and renamed after President Manuel L. Quezon's wife and former First Lady Aurora Quezon.

After crossing Katipunan Avenue (C-5), the road becomes the Marcos Highway (Marikina–Infanta Highway). The portion of Marcos Highway that is part of Radial Road 6 is from Katipunan Avenue up to Famy-Real-Infanta Road in Infanta, Quezon.
