Maryland Route 436 (MD 436) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. Known as Ridgely Avenue, the highway runs 1.14 miles (1.83 km) from Maryland Route 435 in Annapolis north to the end of state maintenance in Parole. MD 436 was constructed along part of MD 435 in the late 1920s. MD 436 was moved to its present course in two steps in the mid-1950s and mid-1970s.

MD 436 begins at an intersection with MD 435 (Taylor Avenue) near the campus of the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis. The highway heads northwest as a two-lane street through the West Annapolis neighborhood. MD 436 crosses Weems Creek on a drawbridge and leaves the city of Annapolis. The highway crosses over U.S. Route 50 and US 301 immediately to the east of the freeway's interchange with MD 70. The bridge over the freeway is between intersections with Riverside Avenue and Acorn Drive, which are unsigned MD 783 and MD 784, respectively. MD 436 reaches its northern terminus just south of Ridgely Avenue's intersection with Bestgate Road and Wilson Road in Parole.
