New Hampshire Route 43 is a 16.418-mile-long (26.422 km) north–south state highway in southeastern New Hampshire. It runs from Candia to Northwood. The northern terminus of NH 43 is in Northwood at U.S. Route 4, U.S. Route 202, and New Hampshire Route 9. The southern terminus is in Candia at an interchange with New Hampshire Route 101.

Route description

NH 43 begins in Candia at Exit 3 of NH 101 as part of Old Candia Road, which continues west as an unnumbered road. NH 43 proceeds north, intersecting with NH 27 before entering the town of Deerfield. Upon entering Deerfield, NH 43 turns sharply east, then north again before meeting NH 107. NH 43 and NH 107 form a concurrency of just over two miles, until NH 107 splits off northwest towards Epsom and NH 43 turns northeast towards Northwood. NH 43 runs for about two miles in Northwood before ending at the split between US 4 and US 202 / NH 9.

From the end of NH 43, one may go one of three ways. To the left is the First New Hampshire Turnpike, which carries US 4, US 202, and NH 9 westbound towards Epsom and Concord. Straight ahead is Rochester Road, which carries US 202 and NH 9 eastbound towards Barrington and Rochester. To the right is Old Turnpike Road, which carries US 4 eastbound towards Durham and Portsmouth. The western terminus of New Hampshire Route 152 also lies just over a half mile from this intersection, at US 4.
