Mississippi Highway 364 (MS 364) is a state highway in northeastern Mississippi, separated in two segments. The route starts at MS 30 southeast of Booneville and travels northeastward. The road travels through Altitude and ends at MS 365 in Cairo. The other segment begins in Holcut and travels eastward to its terminus at MS 25 at Midway. The route was designated in 1950, from a former segment of MS 30 between MS 365 and MS 25. The route was extended southwestwards to MS 30 around 1960, and the highway was completely paved by 1984. The section of MS 364 near the Tennessee–Tombigbee Waterway were removed by the same year, and another section from MS 365 to the waterway was removed ten years later.

MS 364 is split in two segments, with one located in eastern Prentiss County,[5] and the other in western Tishomingo County.[6] The route is legally defined in Mississippi Code § 65-3-3,[7] and all of it is maintained by the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT), as part of the Mississippi State Highway System. In 2014, the section of MS 364 from County Road 2201 (CO 2201) to MS 365 was designated as the "Oliver Wendell Pinson Memorial Highway."[1]
Southeast of Booneville, the western segment of MS 364 starts at the
The former segment of MS 364, no longer maintained by MDOT,[1] still exists in Prentiss and Tishomingo counties. Currently, the road continues eastward from the intersection of MS 364 and MS 365, and crosses Yellow Creek near CO 1471. It bends southward near CO 1481 and crosses the county line into Tishomingo County east of CO 2391.[5] The road, now known as CO 130, intersects CO 131 just past the county line and crosses the Redmont Railway. CO 130 travels eastward, intersecting CO 137,[6] and ends near the Tennessee–Tombigbee Waterway, across from Holcut.[8]
In Holcut, the eastern segment of MS 364 begins at the entrance of the Holcut Memorial Park.[8][6] The road soon turns southeastward in the forested area,[3] and intersects a road leading to the Divide Overlook Area.[8] The route turns northeastward past the intersection, meeting CO 961, which travels to Paden. MS 364 crosses Cripple Deer Creek near CO 129 and turns east past CO 148. The road ends at a three-way junction with MS 25 in Midway.[6]
