National Route 238 (Costa Rica)

National Route 238 is a national highway in Costa Rica. It traverses a relatively short distance in the province of Limón. The route connects the town of Bribrí to the Panama border crossing near Sixaola. It serves as a vital transportation artery for communities in the Talamanca canton, facilitating the movement of people and goods to and from Panama. The route is particularly important for the local indigenous communities and the agricultural sector in the region, particularly the banana industry. The road conditions along Route 238 can vary, and maintenance is often necessary due to the tropical climate and susceptibility to landslides.
