The general routing of MS 590 had existed in the state highway system since at least 1928.[4] By 1950, the MS 590 designation was applied to this road with a small portion of the road around Seminary being paved.[5][6] The road was slowly improved over the next few years until it had been fully improved by 1964.[7][8] Beginning in 2011, the Mississippi Department of Transportation constructed a 2.3-mile-long (3.7 km) extension of MS 590 from just west of its original terminus at US 11 to MS 29 southeast of Ellisville.[9] The construction also included a new entrance to Jones County Junior College. The extension was completed in September 2013.[2]
