Route Description

edit

Columbiana County

edit

Ohio State Route 39 has an eastern terminus at the Pennsylvania state line near East Liverpool, Ohio. It then continues as a two-laned road through residential areas of East Liverpool. It widens into a four lane road just east of the interchange with US 30, and proceeds northwest as a freeway around downtown East Liverpool.[2]

History

edit

SR 39 was commissioned in 1923, originally routed from Shelby to Dover.[3][4] In 1927 the highway was extended to the current eastern terminus at the Pennsylvania state line, along mostly the former route of SR 20.[5][6] The route was extended to its current northern terminus at SR 103, in 1939.[7][8] Between 1969 and 1971 the road between Shelby and Mansfield became a four-lane highway.[9][10] In 1974, the route between Wellsville and East Liverpool was upgraded to a four-lane highway.[11][12]
