Maryland Route 137 (MD 137) is a 8.50-mile (13.68 km) state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. MD 137, also known as Mount Carmel Road, is an east–west road which runs from the traffic circle created by Maryland Route 88, commonly known as Black Rock Road in Hampstead, Maryland, and runs through Maryland Route 25, to Maryland Route 45 at Hereford, passing by Interstate 83, of which it is an exit, to get there. The entire route, from York Road (Maryland Route 45) until it turns left when Gunpowder Road meets with it and ends, is in the northern part of Baltimore County.

Route description

Maryland Route 137 begins at Gunpowder Road in Armacost and travels south carrying Mount Carmel Road, beginning its eastern path at Pleasant Meadow Road. Part of Gunpowder Road not on the Maryland highway system leads west from this intersection and into Carroll County, Maryland, dropping off in the middle of downtown Hampstead, Maryland at the traffic circle. MD 137 soon crosses MD 25 (Falls Road) and is fronted more closely by homes as it weaves through the open country. It features a wide diamond interchange with Interstate 83 and soon meets its end in Hereford at MD 45 (York Road), with a commercial area beginning to front the very end of the road beyond the Interstate.

The entire route is in Baltimore County.
