Maryland Route 405 (MD 405) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. Known as Price Station Road, the state highway runs 8.59 miles (13.82 km) from MD 304 near Bridgetown north to MD 19 near Church Hill. MD 405 connects Church Hill and Bridgetown with the central Queen Anne's County community of Price, where the highway intersects U.S. Route 301 (US 301). The state highway was constructed from Price to south of Roe in the early 1930s and from Price to Church Hill in the mid-1930s. MD 405 was extended from Roe to Bridgetown in Caroline County in the early 1940s. The Bridgetown end was truncated when MD 304 was extended east to Bridgetown in the mid-1960s.
MD 405 begins at an intersection with MD 304 (Ruthsburg Road) west of Bridgetown. The state highway heads northwest through farmland as two-lane Prince Station Road, passing Shawn Road before intersecting Hope Road and Roe Ingleside Road in the hamlet of Roe. After crossing German Branch and passing Roseville Memorial Cemetery, MD 405 reaches the hamlet of Price, where it crosses the Centreville Branch of the Northern Line of the Maryland and Delaware Railroad at grade. Immediately beyond the railroad track, the state highway intersects the dual carriageways of US 301 (Blue Star Memorial Highway), which are separated by a wide median. MD 405 curves north at Flat Iron Square Road and bridges Southeast Branch before reaching its northern terminus at MD 19 (Roberts Station Road) south of Church Hill.
