"Maryland Route" vs "state highway" vs "state route"[edit]

This article's disambig note was change twice to refer to Maryland Route 97 as a "Maryland Route" as opposed to a "Maryland state highway". Not only is "Maryland Route" improperly capitalized (it should be "Maryland route"), but that term is never used as the generic term. Most people refer to the state-numbered highways as "state routes" or "state highways". "State route" is more common so I wouldn't be opposed to calling it that, and also keep in mind that either term can be used to refer to a state-maintained road or a state-numbered route, however in Maryland, when people use the term "state route" they are almost exclusively referring to the state-numbered variety. I'll change the note to refer to it as a Maryland state route. The routebox is another issue entirely.-Jeff ^(talk) 14:35, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Major junctions[edit]

I am surprised to see that the Major Junctions section of the infobox is missing several major highway junctions: I-495, I-70, MD 26, MD 32, and MD 27. Why were these removed? -[[User:TheOneKEA|TheOneKEA[[ (20070803 23:55)

I cannot answer your question, TheOneKEA, but I have added Md. 200 (the ICC) as a future interchange. Cpzilliacus (talk) 18:50, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
