Kentucky Route 1958 (KY 1958) is an 8.669 mile (13.951 km) long state highway in the Winchester, Kentucky area. The route, a bypass circling the perimeter of the city, is defined by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet as a north–south route despite the east–west alignment the bypass follows for most of its length. Its southern terminus is at Kentucky Route 627 (former US 227) a quarter-mile south of Interstate 64 exit 96 north of the city. The northern terminus is at Kentucky Route 2888 (Rockwell Road) mere yards from I-64 northwest of downtown.
The bypass was originally a connector route between I-64, Van Meter Road, Rockwell Road and US 60, but was extended south and southeast to KY 627 south of the city and, later, to its present terminus north of Winchester.

Famous quotes containing the words kentucky and/or route:
“The head must bow, and the back will have to bend,
Wherever the darkey may go;
A few more days, and the trouble all will end,
In the field where the sugar-canes grow.
A few more days for to tote the weary load,—
No matter, ‘t will never be light;
A few more days till we totter on the road:—
Then my old Kentucky home, good-night!”
—Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1884)
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
