[edit] History

The above route description is somewhat outdated, reflecting the historical extent of the route. As part of a route swap with Montgomery County, the state of Maryland truncated the route in the late 1990s (year uncertain); the southern terminus is now at MD 190, and the northern terminus is now at the intersection of Great Falls Road and Maryland Avenue just north of I-270 exit 5.
