History
State Highway 89 was first added to the Oklahoma state highway system on July 26, 1944.[1] The original extent of the highway was from the current northern junction with SH-32 to US-70 in Ringling.[4] These remained the route's termini until January 21, 1957, when it was extended north through Ringling to SH-53, setting its northern terminus at its present location. Minor realignments would take place during the next two years, after which the highway would remain the same for three decades.[1]
On September 6, 1994, the highway was extended south. SH-89 now overlapped SH-32 to Courtney, where it split away towards its new southern terminus at the Texas state line. The highway has undergone no further changes since this extension.[1]
