The A62 autoroute is a French motorway forming part of the Autoroute de Deux Mers (Two Seas Motorway). The route forms the entirety of European route E 72, which is a part of the inter-European road system. The route of the A62 / E72 is between the cities of Bordeaux and Toulouse. The E72 was previously called E76 in 1975.[1]
The road is the western portion of the Autoroute de Deux Mers connecting Toulouse (as an extension of the A61) with Bordeaux with a junction with the A630. The road is a toll road for the majority of its course (free between Bordeaux and La Brède). It is operated by ASF.
The A62 / E72 is 2x2 lanes between Bordeaux and Montauban and was widened to 2x3 lanes between Montauban and Toulouse where it also carries the north–south traffic coming from A20.
