Highway 162 is a two-lane controlled access highway on Boularderie Island in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Highway 162 was constructed in the late 1970s to link Highway 105 in Bras d'Or to the now-closed Prince Mine at Point Aconi. In the early 1990s the highway was extended another 2 kilometres to terminate at the Point Aconi Generating Station. The highway is 8 kilometres (5 mi) long, there is one intersection on the highway near the old Prince Mine site that connects to Point Aconi Road.
