Route description
The route begins at an intersection with MD 32 in Gamber. It continues northeast and intersects MD 140 in Finksburg, near the eastern end of the Westminster Bypass. Continuing north, the road narrows from a wide two-lane configuration into a narrow two-lane country road; the designated route eventually terminates at MD 30 in Fowblesburg, with the physical road continuing onward to terminate at Old Hanover Rd.
The intersection between MD 91 and MD 140 does not allow left turns from MD 140 eastbound to MD 91 northbound; drivers must use a ramp from MD 140 east into a nearby strip mall and follow the strip mall exit roads to an intersection with MD 91, where they must turn left and cross MD 140 in order to continue on MD 91 north.
