Maryland Route 459 (MD 459) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. Known for much of its length as Tuxedo Road, the state highway runs 1.25 miles (2.01 km) from U.S. Route 50 (US 50) in Cheverly north to MD 201 in Tuxedo. MD 459 serves an industrial area in Cheverly and Tuxedo and connects the town to the Cheverly station of the Washington Metro. The state highway was constructed in the early 1930s. MD 459 originally followed Cheverly Avenue through the middle of Cheverly, but the state highway was rolled back to the US 50 interchange in the early 1970s.
