Maryland Route 552 (MD 552) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. The state highway runs 2.20 mi from Dominion north to U.S. Route 50 (US 50)/US 301 in Chester. MD 552 was constructed south of MD 18 in the early 1930s. The state highway was extended north to US 50/US 301 in the early 1990s.
Route description
MD 552 begins at a point between First Street and Church Street in the unincorporated village of Dominion. The highway continues south as county-maintained Little Creek Road. MD 552 heads east as a two-lane undivided road to an intersection with Parson Island Road, where the state highway turns north. The state highway passes through farmland and becomes lined with residences as it approaches an intersection with MD 18 (Main Street) in Chester. MD 552 continues a short distance between shopping centers to its northern terminus at a right-in/right-out interchange with US 50/US 301 (Blue Star Memorial Highway) at exit 39B.
History
MD 552 was paved starting from MD 18 toward Dominion in two sections that opened in 1933 and 1935, respectively. MD 552 was extended north to connect with the ramps for exit 39B of US 50/US 301 when that highway was upgraded to a freeway around 1991.
