Annapolis Route By Baltimore Said To Be Best
A Baltimore to Annapolis road guide notes roads to Annapolis are fair but often rough, with sand on dry stretches and tar on Baltimore Boulevard. The route via Savage is the favored path for Washington motorists, though a longer Baltimore-Washington link offers excellent surface. Annapolis hosts government offices, St John's College and the Naval Academy, with a river crossing at Severn and several trolley sections described in detail for drivers.
