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.

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.
