MD 10 in Glen Burnie
Maryland Route 270 (MD 270) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. Known as Furnace Branch Road, the highway runs 2.16 miles (3.48 km) from MD 648 north to MD 3 Business within Glen Burnie in northeastern Anne Arundel County. MD 270 was constructed between a pair of intersections with MD 2 in the early 1930s. The highway was expanded and relocated when MD 10 was constructed through the area in the mid-1970s.
MD 270 begins at an intersection with MD 648 (Baltimore–Annapolis Boulevard) between MD 648's interchange with MD 10 (Arundel Expressway) and Marley Creek east of the center of Glen Burnie. The highway heads north as a two-lane road that parallels the northbound side of MD 10 through the Margate neighborhood of Glen Burnie. North of Thompson Avenue, MD 270 expands to a four-lane divided highway. The highway curves northwest as it passes through its partial cloverleaf interchange with MD 10. MD 270 becomes a four-lane road with a center turn lane ahead of its intersection with MD 2 (Governor Ritchie Highway). The highway reaches its northern terminus at MD 3 Business (Robert Crain Highway) one block west of MD 2, just south of Furnace Branch.
