Route description

Maryland Route 109 begins at MD 107 in Poolesville, beginning as Elgin Road, a city street. It travels to the north out the city, where it diverges from Elgin Road onto Beallsville Road. It begins to pass neatly through the open countryside, sometimes passing through patches of forest. Homes begin to front the road as it enters Beallsville, where the route intersects MD 28. After this intersection, the route curves to the northeast, where it passes through a small patch of forest and fields, eventually passing under the Brunswick Line of MTA Maryland's MARC Train service. After the rail line, the fields give way to more homes, eventually growing denser as the route enters Barnesville.^[1][2]

Inside Barnesville, MD 109 turns east onto Barnesville Road, leaving this road to the north at the very next intersection. Now following Old Hundred Road, MD 109 passes through a vast stretch of woodland, giving way to fields and homes again as it passes through Comus. Re-entering the woodland, the route turns east as it skirts the Frederick County border for a short stretch (but not leaving the county), bearing straight toward its partial cloverleaf interchange with Interstate 270. The route finally comes to an end in Hyattstown at its intersection with MD 355.^[1][2]
