View east from the west end of former WV 59, signed as CR 59, at WV 259 in Lost City in 2016
While officially designated and shown on West Virginia Division of Highways maps as a state route,[1] the road was signed in the field as a county route since at least the 1990s.[2][3] The route was formally decommissioned on March 16, 2018, when a Highways Commissioner's Order was signed redesignating the road as Hardy County Route 59.[4]
