Route 58 is a south-north state highway in Massachusetts.

From its southern terminus at Route 28 in Rochester, Route 58 runs north through the following towns:

The Rochester/Wareham town line sign on Route 28 at the junction with Route 58 is on the wrong side of the intersection, making one believe that the junction is in Wareham. Additionally, the first town line sign on Route 58 is on the Wareham/Carver line at the 1.3 mile mark, making it seem that this stretch of highway is entirely in Wareham.

North of Route 106 in Halifax, for almost two miles Route 58 bisects West Monponsett Pond and East Monponsett Pond on a narrow strip of land which is at times only 150 feet wide.

Routes 58 and 14 in Hanson overlap for approximately 0.5 mile. The highway ends at Route 18 in Weymouth, 0.5 mile past the Abington/Weymouth town line.
