Vermont Route 62 is a short state highway in Washington County, Vermont, United States. The road was designed to serve as a connector between Interstate 89 and the industrial and commercial centers of Berlin and Barre, akin to the three-digit spur interstates that are present throughout the United States. Unlike those roads, however, Route 62 is not a fully grade separated limited-access highway, having five signaled intersections with local roads over the course of its route. When established in 1970,〔 it was not initially assigned a route number, but informally known as the ''Berlin Hospital Connector''. Until the mid-1970s, the road ended adjacent to Central Vermont Medical Center, connecting to the Berlin State Highway, which runs a southeasterly course to the Edward F. Knapp State Airport. It was only after 1974,〔 once the road had been extended to its present course, that it became known as Route 62. This road, as with other new arterial road construction, spurred further development around the Berlin Corners area, an unincorporated village within the town that is generally considered the main village of Berlin. Within Barre, most of the road passed through areas either previously developed, or where development was considered impractical because of the terrain. Today, the road is a heavily used artery, relative to the population of the area, with a maximum AADT of 13,900 vehicles, as of a 2012 estimate.〔 Even with the road being mostly restricted to , as with the majority of other state-maintained thoroughfares in Vermont, and with no grade separation between it and other roads, the highway is designed to enable drivers to maintain a constant speed throughout their journey. Signage is generally sized and placed in the manner of an Interstate Highway, and with three exceptions - one in Berlin and two in Barre - all turns are executed from roadway dedicated to that purpose, be those lanes with exclusive signals, or in two cases, ramps. ==Route description==
