Route

Its south-western terminus is the R385 just north of Douglas. The route runs north-east, on the north bank of the Vaal River. It reaches the east/west N8 and is briefly cosigned heading east with it. It leaves the N8, at Schmidtsdrift, again heading north-east. It crosses the R31 between Ulco and Delportshoop. After another 40 kilometers it intersects the R371 and is briefly co-signed with it. It ends its route at the N18 at Jan Kempdorp but effectively continues as the R708. [1]

The R639 road is one of Ireland's regional roads. Once designated the N8 national primary road, it was reclassified in stages as the R639 following the progressive opening of sections of the M8 motorway, which rendered the single carriageway N8 redundant as a national primary road. By-passed sections of the old N8 were generally reclassified as R639 as soon as a new section of M8 opened, thereby increasing the length of the R639. With the completion of the M8 on 28 May 2010, the R639 now stretches from Durrow, County Laois to Cork, running through counties Laois, Kilkenny, Tipperary, Limerick and Cork.
