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.

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