Your PS1 seems to include ${SHORT_PWD}, a variable. It seems
that it is not updated immediately after the cd command.

No. I don't have any path information at all when I use your PS1.

By the way, this is bash-3.2.25 on FreeBSD/x86 7.
But I tried to replace the ${SHORT_PWD} by the \w control
sequence (as mentioned in "man bash"). This is the result:
$ export
PS1="\[\033[1;32m\]\[\033[0;36m\]\u\[\033[1;32...@\[\033[0;36m\]\h\[\033[1;32m\]:\[\033[0;37m\]\w\[\033[1;32m\]$\[\033[0;37m\]
"
p...@r55:~$ cd /etc
p...@r55:/etc$ cd /usr/src/sys
p...@r55:/usr/src/sys$
And the \W short form:
p...@r55:/usr/src/sys$ export
PS1="\[\033[1;32m\]\[\033[0;36m\]\u\[\033[1;32...@\[\033[0;36m\]\h\[\033[1;32m\]:\[\033[0;37m\]\w\[\033[1;32m\]$\[\033[0;37m\]
"
p...@r55:sys$ cd /bin
p...@r55:bin$ cd /usr/local
p...@r55:local$
The username and hostname are cyan, @, : and $ are bright green.
Is this what you've intended the prompt to look like?
