Route description
MD 710 begins at an intersection with MD 2 (Governor Ritchie Highway) surrounded by four shopping centers in Glen Burnie. The roadway continues west as county-maintained West Ordnance Road. MD 710 heads east as a four-lane divided highway and meets MD 10 (Arundel Expressway) at a partial cloverleaf interchange. Beyond MD 10, the state highway curves to the northeast, crosses Furnace Creek, and reduces to two lanes. MD 710 passes the Anne Arundel County Correctional Center, a U.S. Army Reserve Center, and the Defense Logistics Agency Curtis Bay Depot.[1] The state highway curves east, passes under Interstate 695 (Baltimore Beltway), and crosses CSX's Curtis Bay Branch at grade before reaching its eastern terminus at MD 173 (Pennington Avenue) in Brooklyn Park at the city limits of Baltimore.[2]
