Maryland Route 528 south

IMG_3368_edited.jpg

Going south coming from Fenwick Island, Delaware, ostensibly beach-bound traffic on Coastal Highway is welcomed to Maryland by this overhead sign, more minimal in design than many of the state's other welcome signs. At this point, Coastal Highway changes designations from Delaware Route 1 to Maryland Route 528 and enters Ocean City. Photo taken 09-05-2023.
