Maryland Route 648
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maryland Route 648 (Route 648 or MD 648) is the designation given to parts of the Baltimore-Annapolis Boulevard that have not been replaced on the spot by Ritchie Highway. This road was originally designated Maryland Route 2 until the completion of Ritchie Highway, at which time Ritchie Highway took on the MD 2 designation and B&A Boulevard was redesignated MD 648.

[edit] Route description
MD 648 exists in various suffixed sections, all either signed as MD 648 or unsigned:
Maryland Route 648A begins at Maryland Route 450 (Baltimore-Annapolis Boulevard and Ritchie Highway) east of the bridge over the Severn River from Annapolis. It runs north to the east of MD 450, ending at a dead end just south of U.S. Route 50/U.S. Route 301. In between, it meets the west end of Maryland Route 179, once the road to the ferry that the Chesapeake Bay Bridge replaced.
Maryland Route 648AB is a short unsigned and unnamed connection between MD 648A and MD 450 near their intersection.
Maryland Route 648F runs from a right-in/right-out access to U.S. Route 50 west/U.S. Route 301 south, just across from MD 648A, north to MD 2.
The next two sections of Baltimore-Annapolis Boulevard - one west and one east of MD 2 - are short county roads.
Maryland Route 648D splits from MD 2 south of Joyce Lane and heads north on its west side, ending at MD 2 south of Robinson Road.
Maryland Route 648H runs from MD 2 north of Robinson Road north to Maryland Route 177. Sections at its two ends are newer alignments, the one at the north end caused by the construction of Maryland Route 100 and named Waterford Road.

Maryland Route 648E runs from Maryland Route 177 just east of Maryland Route 10 north via Glen Burnie and Ferndale to Maryland Route 295 (Russell Street) in Baltimore. It intersects Maryland Route 270, MD 10, MD 2, Maryland Route 3 Business, Maryland Route 176, Interstate 97, Maryland Route 169, Interstate 695, Maryland Route 170 and Maryland Route 168. It is known as Annapolis Road in Baltimore County and Baltimore.
