BR-262 is an east-west highway connecting the Brazilian states of Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, São Paulo and Mato Grosso do Sul.
[1][2][3] The highway runs from Vitória state capital of Espírito Santo to the Bolivian border at Corumbá, Mato Grosso do Sul.
[6] The 180 km stretch between Viana (ES) and the border with Minas Gerais will be granted in 2020, and the duplication should occur by 2040.
In the future, it will also act in conjunction with the Bioceanic Corridor, which connects Campo Grande-MS with the ports of northern Chile.
[10] Together with the bi-oceanic corridor that will link Brazil with Paraguay, northern Argentina and northern Chile, the BR -262 will serve as a link to several tourist destinations: the Entrance of the Andes Mountains, in Jujuy, Argentina; the Atacama Desert, in Chile (which connects the most flooded area on the planet, the Pantanal, with the driest area on the planet); and even to the beaches of the Northeast.
