Answer
Coastal Highway (MD 528) connects Ocean City north–south and links to Delaware beaches, while U.S. 50 remains the primary western gateway across the Kelley Memorial Bridge. Some travelers use mainland approaches through West Ocean City depending on lodging and marina plans. Check MDOT SHA traffic conditions when major events congest the bridge approaches.
