The following is a list of state highways in Maryland shorter than one mile (1.6 km) in length with route numbers between 700 and 799. Most of these highways act as service roads, old alignments of more prominent highways, or connectors between one or more highways. Many of these highways are unsigned and have multiple segments with the same number. Several of these highways have their own articles; those highways are summarized here and a link is provided to the main article. This list does not include highways where at least one highway of that number is at least one mile in length. All highways at least one mile in length have their own article. The highways shorter than one mile with the same number are covered in the main article for the highway.

Maryland Route 701 is the unsigned designation for a pair of highways parallel to US 301 on either side of the U.S. highway's interchange with MD 291 near Millington in eastern Kent County.[MD 701 1]
Howard Johnson Road was constructed as a county highway between MD 291 and Millington Road after US 301 was built through the Millington area between 1954 and 1957.[MD 701 4][MD 701 5][MD 701 6] The 0.71-mile-long (1.14 km) highway was brought into state maintenance through a December 1, 1987, road transfer agreement and designated MD 701 in July 1988.[MD 701 7][MD 701 8] Less than a decade later, the state and county signed a November 25, 1997, road transfer agreement through which the state would turn over the portions of MD 701 and the proposed service road on the west side of US 301, MD 701A, to the county after the service roads were reconstructed and resurfaced and the US 301–MD 291 interchange was completed.[MD 701 9] The interchange was constructed in 1998 and 1999.[MD 701 10] The portion of MD 701 south from the interchange ramps was relocated during the interchange construction. In 1999, MD 701 north of the interchange ramps was transferred to state maintenance, and MD 701A was assigned to its present length along Edge Road. In addition, Chesterville Bridge Road and Millington Road, which had previously had a normal intersection with US 301, were separated into separate county highways when the median of US 301 was closed.[MD 701 11][MD 701 12] Access between the county highways requires using both MD 701s and their county extensions to cross over US 301 on MD 291.[MD 701 1]

Maryland Route 727 is the designation for a pair of streets named Old North Road parallel to MD 268 on either side of Amtrak's Northeast Corridor in Elkton in northeastern Cecil County.[MD 727 1]
The two sections of MD 727 were part of the original course of MD 279.[MD 727 3] North Street became MD 268 after MD 279 was extended west to US 40 to bypass the center of Elkton in 1968.[MD 727 4][MD 727 5] North Street was paved as a 15-foot-wide (4.6 m) concrete road by 1921.[MD 727 6][MD 727 7] The original North Street overpass of the Pennsylvania Railroad (now Amtrak) was constructed between 1930 and 1934.[MD 727 8][MD 727 9] The bypassed street stubs to the closed grade crossing were designated MD 727 and MD 727A in 1949.[MD 727 7]

Maryland Route 731 is the unsigned designation for a pair of service roads in Wicomico County just east of the Nanticoke River. MD 731A (Marsh Road) is a 0.38-mile (0.61 km) highway that comprises part of the alignment of US 50 prior to the bypass of Vienna. West of MD 731C (Old Bradley Road), a 0.13-mile (0.21 km) connector between US 50 and MD 731A, MD 731A is a two-way road heading west toward a fence at the marshland lining the river. East of MD 731C, MD 731A is one-way eastbound and passes through a truck weigh station.[1][5][6]
MD 731 once consisted of Old Ocean Gateway on the Dorchester County side as well, including the entire length of the former approach to the Nanticoke River after the drawbridge span was dismantled. It was shortened in the mid-2000s: the Dorchester side is now maintained by the town of Vienna, and the Wicomico side has been privatized to Delmarva Power as an access road to the transmission crossing over the river.
