The Rodovia Estrada do Coco and Linha Verde, (BA-099), is a state highway which runs through the northeastern part of the state of Bahia and southeastern region of the state of Sergipe in Brazil. The road connects the city of Salvador, the capital of Bahia, to the city of Aracaju, the capital of Sergipe.

History

The highway is maintained by a state concession to the private company CLN (Concessionária Litoral Norte) since 2001, [1] and so is a toll road. This ownership transfer has improved road quality and safety.
