MD 214


Maryland Route 214 (Central Avenue in Prince George's County and most of Anne Arundel County) is an east–west state highway that runs through Prince George's County and Anne Arundel County within the U.S. state of Maryland. Central Avenue runs along the center of Prince George's County and divides it into north and south. Points of interest near Route 214 are Watkins Regional Park, Six Flags America amusement park, the Evangel Temple and FedEx Field, the home of the Washington Redskins.

Maryland Route 214 carries East Capitol Street out of Washington, D.C. at the Southern Avenue intersection, the latter of which forms the city line. MD 214 passes through suburbs in Capitol Heights and merges into Central Avenue, widening the two-lane street into a six-lane divided boulevard. The route continues east as it interchanges with the Capital Beltway, and then, MD 202. As the road's surroundings grow more wooded, the route interchanges with US 301, featuring a very widespread set of ramps which allows merging into US 301 on the inside lanes.

East of US 301, the road narrows to two lanes with shoulders, and the surroundings become much more rural, featuring expanses of fields and forests as it crosses the Patuxent River into Anne Arundel County. Continuing in much the same fashion as it did in Prince George's, MD 214 passes through Davidsonville, and later intersects MD 2 just southwest of Londontowne, at which point the road turns southeast. The road works its way south to Mayo, where its name changes to Beverly Avenue upon crossing Rogers Road. As it curves to the east suddenly near the south end of town, Beverly Avenue leaves MD 214, and the road follows Grande View Avenue to the end of the road at a gate.
