South Dakota Highway 59 was a state route in south central South Dakota.

History

South Dakota 59 was implemented in the mid 1920's. Its northern terminus was at U.S. Highway 16 in Murdo, and traveled south via White River to Mission (South Dakota Highway 50, present day U.S. Highway 18). The southern terminus was extended to the Nebraska border north of Valentine, Nebraska, by 1929.

Around 1932, U.S. Highway 183 was implemented along the entire alignment of SD 59. The dual signage was removed by 1935. The road became part of U.S. Highway 83 in the 1940's, when the alignments of U.S. 83 and U.S. 183 were swapped.
