Gazetted in 1999,[1] it is a generally quicker route to get between Auckland and New Plymouth as well as connecting to the Waitomo Caves, just south of the SH 39 southern terminus. The southernmost 14\u00a0km section has a concurrency with SH\u00a031, as this highway has existed for much longer (SH 31 continues west to Kawhia).       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4SH 39 begins at SH\u00a01C on the Te Rapa section of the Waikato Expressway at Koura Drive, just north of the city of Hamilton. It veers south briefly before reaching a roundabout junction where it follows Te Kowhai Road westbound, eventually changing to Limmer Road. At the intersection of Horotiu Road SH 39 veers south (the northbound road formed the previous SH 39 route) until the intersection with SH\u00a023 at Whatawhata. It shares a brief concurrency, turning left into SH 23, then immediately right back onto SH 39 southbound. Following Kakaramea Road, the highway passed through Ng\u0101hinap\u014duri then the township of Pirongia. After Pironga the state highway intersects SH 31 to Kawhia. For the final 14\u00a0km the road is jointly designated SH 31 and SH 39 before terminating in the town of \u014ctorohanga with SH 3.[2][unreliable source?][when?]SH 39 is classified as an ‘arterial’ highway under the One Network Road Classification.[3]The traffic flow records indicate that through traffic forms about half the flow, with traffic from Hamilton via SH 23 adding to the flow through Whatawhata and via Temple View and Tuhikaramea Rd adding to the flow through Ng\u0101hinap\u014duri and from Kawhia adding a little to the flow at the southern end of SH 39.[4]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Average annual daily trafficLocation20112012201320142015% Heavy vehicleseast of Te Kowhai15723243376113north of Whatawhata506215north of Tuhikaramea Rd3133315230202918323019Ng\u0101hinap\u014duri5503541354305500566615Puketotara3166320232433269354517before SH 31 Intersection2456250326662589280120after SH 31 Intersection2576271427552781292920Table of ContentsMajor intersections[edit]Route changes[edit]History[edit]Floods[edit]Buses[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Major intersections[edit]Route changes[edit]SH 39’s northern terminus has changed. In 2013 after the completion of the Waikato Expressway, Ng\u0101ruaw\u0101hia Section, SH\u00a01 used to travel through Ng\u0101ruaw\u0101hia and Te Kowhai further north than currently.[5] After the expressway was completed, the Waikato Expressway become the new SH 1. As the expressway is a faster route, SH 39 was diverted away from Ng\u0101ruaw\u0101hia to its current terminus at Te Rapa. The current route was temporarily designated SH 39A[6] whilst it was being upgraded to highway status and in June 2014 this section become SH 39 and the old section revoked.[7][8]In July 2022, upon opening of the Hamilton section of the Waikato Expressway, SH 1 moved from its location via Mangaharakeke Drive onto the expressway. The old designation of SH 1 through Hamilton was renumbered SH 1C.[9]History[edit]In 1936\/7 the road was declared a main highway under the Main Highways Act 1922 from Horotiu\/Ng\u0101ruaw\u0101hia to Te Rore via Whatawhata and improvements made.[10] At that time, AADT south of Whatawhata was 102.[11] About 1970 SH39 was straightened and widened.[12]Floods[edit]The road runs close to the Waip\u0101 River for most of its length. Until the 1930s improvements, floods closed the road in 1904,[13] 1907[14] and 1926.[15]Buses[edit]The only bus now using SH 39 is a very short section of the Raglan-Hamilton route.[16] A bus route linked Pirongia, Whatawhata and Hamilton from 1926.[17] In 1932 Lewis Hodgson took over[18] and it was still running in 1942.[19]See also[edit]References[edit]^ “Declaring New Sections of State Highway: State Highway No. 1B and State Highway No. 39”.
