Pennsylvania Route 262 (PA 262) is an 11.9-mile-long (19.2 km) state highway located in York County, Pennsylvania. The western terminus is at PA 114 in Fairview Township. The eastern terminus is at PA 382 near York Haven. PA 262 is a two-lane undivided road that passes through the rural northern portion of York County. The route heads east from PA 114 and comes to an interchange with Interstate 83 (I-83) in Fairview Township. A short distance later, PA 262 intersects PA 177 before turning south along the west bank of the Susquehanna River and reaching PA 392. The route passes through Goldsboro and intersects PA 297 in Cly before coming to its terminus.
In 1928, the paved road between PA 24 (now PA 382) south of Cly and Goldsboro was designated as PA 920. The portion of the current route west of Goldsboro was paved in the 1930s. The PA 920 designation was removed in the 1940s. PA 262 was designated to its present course in 1961. The route was realigned at the PA 177 intersection in 2011.
