Maryland Route 132 (MD 132) is a collection of state highways in the U.S. state of Maryland. These four highways are sections of old alignment of and connecting roads with MD 22 in Aberdeen. MD 132 connects Aberdeen neighborhoods east and west of U.S. Route 40 (US 40) with MD 22 and Interstate 95 (I-95). MD 132B serves the area east of US 40 and north of MD 22 between Aberdeen and Havre de Grace. MD 132A and MD 132C are connectors between MD 132 and MD 22. The highways that are now part of MD 132 were originally built in the early 1910s and marked as part of MD 22 and US 40 in 1927. MD 22 was extended east and north along the US 40 portion when the U.S. highway was relocated in the 1930s. MD 132 was assigned to the highway when MD 22 was relocated in the late 1960s. MD 132 became a split route following the construction of a railroad grade separation in the 1980s.

Famous quotes containing the word route:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
