Route

The R39 has its beginnings in Baumann Street, Florapark, northern Standerton, at an intersection with the R50, R23 and R546 routes. It leaves the town in a north-easterly direction with the Grootdraai Dam to its east. Junctioning with the R38 that heads north to Bethal, it continues north-easterly crossing the Blesbokspruit before entering Morgenzon as Steyn Street, bisecting the north-south R35 road in the town. Leaving the town, it continues north-east to Ermelo, ending at a T junction with the N17 (Bethal Road; Joubert Street) west of the town centre.
