NHS: Entire remaining length in Maryland. (north of US 1)

What remains of US 222 in Maryland is in fact its original length when the US system was formed in 1926. It was by 1940 extended down to Perryville and US 40 where it remained until 1995, when the southern end was rolled back to US 1. The removed section is now signed as MD 222, including the concurrent section of US 1. There is also a Truck MD 222 (part of which was MD 338 and 269) offering a better grade down to I-95 and US 40 and avoiding the low railroad bridge in Port Deposit.
