LocalLink 36 is a bus route operated by the Maryland Transit Administration in Baltimore and its suburbs.

[2] A year later, as the Route 9 was introduced, the Hunt Valley service on this line was truncated to Towson.

[3] For the next 20 years, the line operated from the Towson area to Franklin Square Hospital, with selected trips, mostly during rush hour, continuing to Fox Ridge.

In 2005, as part of the Greater Baltimore Bus Initiative, it was proposed that Route 55 would operated every 30 minutes versus the previous 40, and Sunday service would be introduced.

[6] On February 17, 2008, these changes were implemented seven days a week,[7] despite public outcry over transfers that would be required to reach Towson University and area hospitals.
