State Route 358 (SR 358) is a 6.4-mile-long (10.3 km) west–east state highway located entirely in the southeastern part of Twiggs County in the central part of the U.S. state of Georgia. It is mainly a rural route. The highway was built along its current alignment between 1963 and 1966.

Twiggs County is a county located in the U.S. state of Georgia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 9,023. The county seat is Jeffersonville. The county was created on December 14, 1809 and named for American Revolutionary War general John Twiggs.

Central Georgia is the area containing the metropolitan region surrounding the city of Macon, in Bibb County in the U.S. state of Georgia. It abuts the Atlanta metropolitan area, just to the north.

In the United States, a state is a constituent political entity, of which there are currently 50. Bound together in a political union, each state holds governmental jurisdiction over a separate and defined geographic territory and shares its sovereignty with the federal government. Due to this shared sovereignty, Americans are citizens both of the federal republic and of the state in which they reside. State citizenship and residency are flexible, and no government approval is required to move between states, except for persons restricted by certain types of court orders. Four states use the term commonwealth rather than state in their full official names.

Route description

SR 358 begins at an intersection with SR 96 south-southeast of Jeffersonville. The route travels to the east-northeast along Homer Chance Highway to an interchange with Interstate 16 (I-16) just east of its midpoint. It continues to the east-northeast and meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with US 80/SR 19 west of Danville.^[1]
