Answer
From inland Maryland and the Baltimore/Washington region, U.S. Route 50 (Ocean Gateway) crosses the Harry W. Kelley Memorial Bridge into downtown Ocean City. From Delaware beaches, Coastal Highway continues south into town. Build extra time on summer Fridays, holiday weekends, and major event days when bridge and Coastal Highway traffic routinely backs up.
Once on-island, use Town pedestrian safety (WalkSmart) habits at crossings, and confirm parking rules on Town parking information.
