State Road 262 is a short, 15-mile (24 km) highway in the southeastern portion of the U.S. state of Indiana.
Route description
State Road 262 begins at U.S. Route 50 (US 50) near Dillsboro in Dearborn County. Going south, it crosses State Road 62 after only a few hundred feet, then runs southeast. After a few miles, it descends into the Laughery Creek Valley, crossing the creek into Ohio County. After turning eastward and passing through the small town of Milton, it ascends out of the Valley. Both the approach and departure of the valley are fairly hazardous, with sharp curves and steep dropoffs. At about 7 miles, it reaches the top of the ridge, where the road straightens out for a distance of a mile. It then descends into the Arnold Creek Valley, which is also a curvy stretch of road, but less hazardous than the Laughery Creek section. It terminates at State Road 56 in the town of Rising Sun on the Ohio River. 56 actually continues for one block following 262's route, before turning south and continuing towards Vevay and Madison.
