Delaware Route 58, also known as Churchmans Road, is a state highway in New Castle County, Delaware. The route runs from Delaware Route 4 adjacent to the Christiana Hospital in Christiana to Delaware Route 273 near Hares Corner.

[edit] Route description

Delaware Route 58 heads to the east from DE 4 on a four-lane, divided highway. It heads east through commercial development to an interchage with Delaware Routes 1 and 7 in Christiana. Just east of that interchange, DE 58 passes by the Stanton campus of Delaware Technical and Community College and then passes over Interstate 95, where there is a ramp from I-95 southbound to Delaware Route 58 westbound. This is the only direct ramp between Delaware Route 58 and I-95, as all other access between the two routes must be made via Routes 1 and 7.

Past I-95, DE 58 heads to the southeast, crosses the Christina River, and intersects Delaware Route 37 (Airport Road). Past the intersection with Delaware Route 37, Delaware Route 58 heads to the southeast and skirts the edge of New Castle Airport. It then passes through light industrial development and continues to its terminus at Delaware Route 273.
