The following is a list of state highways in Maryland shorter than one mile (1.6 km) in length with route numbers between 2 and 699. Most of these highways act as service roads, old alignments of more prominent highways, or connectors between one or more highways. Many of these highways are unsigned and have multiple segments with the same number. Several of these highways have their own articles; those highways are summarized here and a link is provided to the main article. This list does not include highways where at least one highway of that number is at least one mile in length. All highways at least one mile in length have their own article. The highways shorter than one mile with the same number are covered in the main article for the highway.
Maryland Route 79 is the designation for the state-maintained portion of Petersville Road, which runs 0.85 miles (1.37 km) from MD 17 and MD 464 in Rosemont north to a bridge over the on the northern border of Rosemont. MD 79 begins at a four-way intersection on the boundary between the town of Brunswick to the south and the village of Rosemont to the north. Petersville Road continues south as MD 17 into Brunswick; MD 17 also heads west along Burkittsville Road. The eastern leg of the intersection is MD 464 (Souder Road). MD 79 heads northeast as a two-lane road through a residential area where the highway meets the eastern end of Rosemont Drive, which is unsigned MD 871G. The state highway comes to its northern terminus at a bridge over Little Catoctin Creek on the northern border of Rosemont. Past the northern terminus, Petersville Road continues north as a county road toward MD 180 (Jefferson Pike) in Petersville.
Petersville Road was constructed as a 14-foot (4.3 m) wide macadam-surfaced highway from Jefferson Pike (designated US 340 and later MD 180) south to Brunswick in 1916. When state highways were first numbered in Maryland in 1927, the portion of Petersville Road south of what is now Rosemont Drive became MD 33; MD 33 became MD 17 in 1940. Petersville Road from Rosemont north to Petersville was later marked as MD 79. MD 79's modern bridge over Little Catoctin Creek was built in 1941 after the previous bridge was carried away by a flood that year. MD 79 was extended south to its current southern terminus in 1968 when MD 17 was relocated to its present course through Rosemont and MD 464 was extended west along Souder Road to its present terminus to form the fourth leg of that intersection. On October 31, 2016, the northern terminus of MD 79 was cut back from MD 180 to its current location when the section of Petersville Road between the Little Catoctin Creek bridge on the northern border of Rosemont and MD 180 was transferred to county maintenance.
