Maryland Route 20

Maryland Route 20 (MD 20) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. The state highway runs from Beach Road and Lawton Avenue in Rock Hall east to MD 291 in Chestertown. MD 20, which connects Chestertown with several villages in western Kent County, was designated one of the original state roads to be improved by the Maryland State Roads Commission in 1909. The first section of the highway was completed near Fairlee in 1915. The highway east to Chestertown and southwest to Rock Hall was completed in the late 1910s. MD 20 was relocated south of Fairlee in the mid-1920s, at Fairlee in the mid-1950s, and in Rock Hall in the mid-1960s. The eastern terminus was rolled back from downtown Chestertown to MD 291 in the late 1980s. Another section of MD 20 was constructed in southeastern Baltimore County between Fort Howard and Baltimore in the early 1920s. The two MD 20s were connected by a ferry across the Chesapeake Bay in the mid-1920s. The western MD 20 was bypassed by MD 151 from Edgemere to Baltimore in the early 1940s and removed from the state highway system in the late 1990s.
==Route description==
MD 20 begins at an intersection with Beach Road and Lawton Avenue in the town of Rock Hall just east of where Swan Creek empties into the Chesapeake Bay. The state highway heads east as Rock Hall Avenue, a two-lane road that passes by a few residential neighborhoods and a few marinas. In the downtown area of Rock Hall, MD 20 intersects MD 445 (Main Street) and heads through a commercial strip as a three-lane road with center turn lane. The state highway reduces to two lanes and its name changes to Rock Hall Road upon leaving the town limits, after which the highway intersects the old alignment of MD 20, MD 674 (Sharp Street) and MD 288 (Crosby Road). MD 20 curves to the northeast, passing through a mix of farmland and forest with scattered residences.〔〔
Shortly after crossing Shipyard Creek, MD 20 intersects MD 21 (Tolchester Beach Road). The state highway meets the southern terminus of MD 298 (Fairlee Road), then curves to the east outside of the village of Fairlee. At Old Fairlee Road, the highway's name changes to Chestertown Road and the highway passes through farmland. MD 20 intersects the northern end of MD 446 (Broad Neck Road) before crossing the East Fork of Langford Creek. The state highway intersects the southern end of MD 514 (Flatland Road) before curving to the southeast, crossing Radcliffe Creek, and entering the town limits of Chestertown. Shortly thereafter, MD 20 reaches its eastern terminus at a roundabout with the western terminus of MD 291 (Morgnec Road), which leads to MD 213. The roadway continues southeast as High Street toward downtown Chestertown.〔〔
