State Route 58 (SR 58), also locally called "Highway 58", is a north–south state highway in the U.S. state of Tennessee that serves as a major route for many communities in Roane, Meigs, and Hamilton counties.
The section of SR 58 in Chattanooga between SR 153 and Ochs Highway is a largely unsigned secondary alignment following other state and local roads before becoming a primary route toward the north of the city.
SR 58 joins I-40 for part of its route in Roane County, from the Kingston exit (352) east to the Oak Ridge exit (356) west of Oak Ridge.
Route description

=SR 58 begins as a secondary highway, known as Ochs Highway, in Hamilton County at the Georgia state line in Lookout Mountain, where the road continues southward as SR 157. It goes north through Lookout Mountain before leaving the scenic town at an intersection and becoming briefly concurrent with SR 17 and entering Chattanooga. It proceeds downtown via Tennessee Avenue, West 40th Street, Alton Park Boulevard, and Market Street. Along Market Street, it has an interchange with I-24/US 27 before turning at East Main Street for a concurrency with US 41/US 76/SR 8. It turns north at Dodds Avenue (US 11/US 64/SR 2) and connects to SR 17 via Bailey Avenue and McCallie Avenue. It eventually comes to an interchange with the SR 153 freeway, where SR 58 becomes a primary highway, going east and leaving Chattanooga. It proceeds straight through Harrison before turning north and crossing Chickamauga Lake, leaving Harrison. SR 58 then intersects and has a short concurrency with SR 312 in the community of Snow Hill, just west of Ooltewah. It continues north to Georgetown, where it has an intersection with SR 60 before crossing into Meigs County.
