Maryland Route 458 (MD 458) is a
Route description
MD 458 begins at an intersection with MD 5 (Branch Avenue) in Silver Hill. The west leg of the intersection is Iverson Street, which passes under
MD 458 a part of the National Highway System as an intermodal connector from MD 5 in Silver Hill to MD 4 in Suitland. The remainder of the route from MD 4 east to Walker Mill Road is a National Highway System principal arterial.[1][3]
History
MD 458 was constructed as a concrete road in two sections—from MD 5 (now MD 414) in Silver Hill to MD 218 in Suitland, and from MD 218 to MD 4 (now Marlboro Pike) in District Heights—between 1930 and 1933.[4][5] The whole highway was widened with the addition of a pair of 3.5-foot-wide (1.1 m) bituminous shoulders between 1940 and 1942.[6] MD 458's interchange with the Suitland Parkway was built in its modern configuration when the parkway was constructed through Suitland in 1943.[7][8] The first divided highway portion of MD 458 was created in 1960 when the highway was relocated from just south of the just-completed present alignment of MD 4 north to the old alignment of MD 4 in District Heights.[9] Marlboro Pike became MD 4 Business, which was removed in 1970; Old Silver Hill Road became MD 972A.[9][10] The divided highway was extended west from MD 4 to MD 414 in 1965.[7][11] MD 458 was constructed as a divided highway to its present terminus at MD 5 in 1967; Old Silver Hill Road became an extension of MD 414.[12] The highway was constructed as a divided highway from Marlboro Pike north to its present terminus with Walker Mill Road in 1985.[13]
