CityLink Blue (BL) is a bus service managed by the Maryland Transit Administration that links Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center located in East Baltimore with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on Security Boulevard in Woodlawn, Baltimore County. Certain late-night and weekend trips conclude at the North Bend Loop near Baltimore City's western edge. Westbound journeys follow the opposite path, mainly commencing from CMS or the North Bend Loop.

Spanning 14.2 miles, this route connects important destinations such as CMS, Security Square Mall, the Social Security Administration, West Baltimore station, Lexington Market (Light Rail and Metro Subway), Mercy Medical Center, Baltimore City Hall, Phoenix Shot Tower (Metro Subway), Dunbar High School, and Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center. The service runs frequently throughout the day and night, operating around the clock and serving close to 1.94 million passengers in 2022.

CityLink Blue closely follows the corridor once planned for the now-cancelled Red Line east-west light rail project, which Governor Larry Hogan terminated in 2015.
