BALTIMORE, Md. (May 21, 2013) – A new State map is now available to you, for free, from the Maryland State Highway Administration. You can view it online anytime by clicking here. Printed versions are also available upon request, as well as at Maryland’s welcome centers.

“Whether you view a printed copy, or see it online, this map has so much to offer. I encourage you to check it out right away,” says State Highway Administrator Melinda B. Peters.

 

The map appeals to all, not just drivers, with a variety of features. They include transit connections, railroad lines, park-and-ride lots, state parks and welcome centers. Drivers will appreciate the detailed routes and interstates displayed.

 

Valuable safety information is shared on the map as well. One reminder notes that texting and hand held cell phone use is illegal in Maryland while driving. Another reminder encourages drivers to give bikes three feet when passing – another State law.

 

This year’s map showcases Sideling Hill in Washington County as the cover photo. The image was taken by Tim Dicke.
