Maryland Route 122 (MD 122), better known locally as Security Boulevard, is a six-lane highway that runs near the Social Security Administration complex located in Woodlawn in western Baltimore County, Maryland. The numbered route came into existence in 1990, though the road was there long before.

Route description

The route is a six lane divided highway that serves the Social Security Administration complex. It begins at an intersection with Rolling Road, following Security Boulevard on a six-lane, divided alignment. Here, the route directly faces Security Square Mall and provides direct access to it. The route then interchanges with I-695 at an interchange which incorporates elements of a diamond and cloverleaf; the ramps for the I-70 to I-695 are inside the south end of this interchange with no direct access to I-70. However, access to I-70 is available in the westbound direction via Ingleside Avenue.

MD 122 continues through the business area, exiting it and curving south through a forest, toward Leakin Park. Access to Leakin Park is available via either North Forest Park Avenue to Windsor Mill Road or via Cooks Lane and Briarclift Road. The route runs through Dead Run Park, where it interchanges with the national eastern terminus of Interstate 70. The route continues until it touches the Baltimore City line, where it changes to Cooks Lane (ending the MD 122 designation there) and terminates at the Edmondson Avenue portion of US 40.
