New Jersey Route 439

Route 439 is a short state highway in the communities of Linden and Elizabeth in Union County, New Jersey. The highway is known as the Bayway, North Avenue and Elmora Avenue from the Goethals Bridge and Interstate 278 in Linden and does a loop around Elizabeth, with the designation terminating at an intersection with New Jersey Route 27 in Elizabeth. The highway originated as part of Route 28 south of the current intersection with New Jersey Route 28 and Route S24 (which made up several routes) north of that intersection to New Jersey Route 82. The current designation of NJ 439 was assigned in the 1953 renumbering.
