Provincial Trunk Highway 39 (PTH 39) is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It runs from PTH 6 (to Thompson) to PTH 10 (to Flin Flon).
The highway serves as the main east-west crossing of Grass River Provincial Park and Division No. 21, as well as providing road access to Snow Lake. The speed limit is 100 km/h (62 mph).
Route description
PTH 39 begins within Grass River Provincial Park at an intersection with PTH 10 a few kilometers south of Cranberry Portage, with the road heading east, winding its way across the entire length of the park, traveling past several large lakes and campgrounds, such as the Cranberry Lakes and Reed Lake. The highway exits the park, passing by Tramping Lake and crossing Hayward Creek to have an intersection with PR 392 within the city limits Snow Lake. It travels along the southern coastline of Wekusko Lake for a few kilometers to have an intersection with access road to Herb Lake Landing. PTH 39 now goes through some sharp curves for the next several kilometers, where it has an intersection with PR 596 and begin paralleling the Mitishto River. The highway now straightens out, crossing the river and coming to an end at an intersection with PTH 6 near Ponton.[1][2]
The entire length of Manitoba Highway 39 is a rural, paved, two-lane highway traveling through the woodlands of Division No. 21.
History
Together with the section of PTH 6 between Ponton and Thompson, PTH 39 was originally designated as PR 391. A further, more northerly and only partly paved section of Provincial Road 391, doubling back westward from Thompson to Lynn Lake, continues to bear that designation.
