NH 38 End Photos

South End, at Mass. 38/Mass State Line in Pelham

Looking north into New Hampshire at south end of Route 38 at Mass. state line.

The cement plant is on both sides of the state line as well as both sides of the road.


North End, at Route 28 in Salem

NH 38's north end is rather poorly marked. Northbound, there is no signage when you reach Rockingham Park Blvd., just signage telling you how to reach I-93 and NH 28 (and the Rockingham Park Mall and the racetrack). The route log does state it ends at NH 28 and Rockingham Park Blvd.

Rockingham Park Blvd. at the NH 28 junction.

Signage along NH 28 and Rockingham Park Blvd. all reads "TO 38", even though you're already on NH 38 southbound when on Rockingham Park Blvd. The overhead sign reads "TO 38" and the small green sign is the exception (no "TO") when telling you NH 38 runs along Mall Road here. The bridge in the next two photos is a flyover ramp that leads from I-93 Exit 1 Northbound to Mall Road (which is NH 38).

Which way? Mall Road where it ends at Rockingham Park Blvd. Signs (not visible) tell you that NH 28 is to the left and I-93 to the right, just not which way is NH 38.

End of the flyover ramp from I-93 northbound. NH 38 goes left-right here although the signs again read "TO 38" to the right. (it doesn't make sense to turn left here anyway, since if you wanted to go that way (to NH 28) you should not use this flyover in the first place)

An old routing of NH 38 runs from NH 97's west end on Main St. and turns left here onto Pleasant St.

Along old routing of NH 38 on Pleasant St., approaching Mall Road, which is where NH 38 now leaves Pleasant St.
