The N39 is a Belgian national road in West Flanders, running from Nieuwpoort to the Belgian–French border near Dunkerque. It is fully maintained by the Flemish Government's Agentschap Wegen en Verkeer.[1]
The N39 starts at the junction with the N34 in Nieuwpoort and heads southeast along Nieuwpoortkeiweg (the Pelikaanstraat segment was transferred to municipal control in April 2005). It continues through the coastal towns of Koksijde and Veurne before reaching the French border, connecting regionally to Dunkerque.[2][3]
Sections of the N39—especially near Koksijde and Veurne—are known for accident frequency. The Flemish government has installed speed‑control cameras along the Veurnekeiweg in Koksijde under the AWV traffic monitoring initiative.[4][5][6][7]
