The route then curves back to the west and turns north just before Cedar Grove Cemetery. Farther to the north, in Climax, SR 262 has a short concurrency with US 84/SR 38 (Thomasville Road) and crosses a CSX Transportation railroad line. Just northeast of Climax is Fleatown Cemetery. Farther to the north, SR 309 (Old Pelham Road) west and Mars Hill Church Road east. The highway heads nearly due north to an intersection with SR 97 (Vada Road) south. Here, SR 97 and SR 262 from a brief concurrency into the unincorporated community of Vada, where SR 262 splits onto a nearly due east route along the Decatur-Mitchell County line.
