However, a CNS analysis shows the total impact, factoring in county-maintained roads, could be much worse.
Maryland is home to more than 5,200 miles of state roads and about 21,000 miles of county roads, according to Maryland State Highway Administration documents. A CNS analysis found that roughly 800 miles of roads would be affected if sea levels rise another 2 feet. At 5 feet, an estimated 3,700 miles would be under water.

744: do you have any good ideas or are you just going to complain.
Tax Omally's stupity and problem solved
If the sea level rises five feet what are we going to need those roads for anyway?
I can see a Sea Level Tax coming from this.
The executive order means the money is being spent now as we speak! Money spent on fear of something that MIGHT happen in the future. Money spent on a rumor that the sea level in the bay would somehow rise faster than anywhere else in the world!!!!!!
Are you pissed yet?
Maybe the level will rise so the Baltimorons can no longer come over to Shore and Easter Shore can succeed from Maryland.
United Eastern Shore Island... LOL Screw you TaxMalley
People listen to historians even though they weren't there to witness what happened. Why? Because they are smarter than you in that field.
People listen to the Bible even though it was written a few hundred years later by someone who wasn't there!
So why is it so difficult to believe scientists. They are literally seeing these effects in the present, and are way more intelligent than you or I in their field!
Sucks to live by the shore.
Al Gore for governor.
