U.S. Route 11 or U.S. Highway 11 (US-11) is a major north-south United States Numbered Highway extending 1,645 miles (2,647 km) across the eastern U.S. The southern terminus of the route is at US 90 in Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge in eastern New Orleans, Louisiana. The northern terminus is at the Rouses Point-Lacolle 223 Border Crossing in Rouses Point, New York. The route continues across the border into Canada as Route 223. US 11, created in 1926, maintains most of its original route. The route north of Knoxville, Tennessee, follows a route similar to Interstate 81 (I-81). While it is signed as a north-south route, it physically travels in a northeast-southwest direction. Until 1929, US 11 ended just south of Picayune, Mississippi, at the Pearl River border with Louisiana. It was extended through Louisiana after that. The Maestri Bridge, which carries US 11 across Lake Pontchartrain, served as the only route to New Orleans from the east for six weeks after Hurricane Katrina due to its sturdy construction. The storm virtually destroyed the I-10 Twin Span Bridge and damaged the Fort Pike Bridge on US 90. I-81, constructed in the 1960s, parallels the route of US 11 in many areas. Beyond I-81's southern terminus, other Interstates run along corridors paralleling US 11, specifically I-59, which is joined to I-81 by I-40, I-75, and I-24. Heading generally northeast, US-11 passes through Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New York.

NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to New York! I have visited Binghamton on at least 9 occasions and, though I was on a bicycle, never even saw Court Street or US-11. I am very grateful for this video and #1007. I always came in from county roads to the south (connecting with PA-267, I think) and left by NY-434. Or I drove with my family on I-81.
Welcome to New York!
I enjoy your road trips on us hwy 11. When you stop at hotels to spend the night that you do a hotel review as well. You do a great job
Back in the early 60's, the Interstate system was less than 50 percent done and I ran truck on mostly the U.S Highway system like U.S. 11. As time went by we of course used the interstate system. As for myself, I'd often get off onto the older U.S. system. This video you show here is one of my favorite highways for truck. I'd get off whichever interstate at Binghamton and catch 11 all the way down to Scranton. After the dual lanes became single lanes, it was like going back in time. Everything became ancient again until before Scranton. Loved the memories flowing back from being on the old roadways.
Nice trip! 😍
Nice trip surprised at how little population is few houses
Paused at 11:06... Oftentimes, when my folks and my sibs and I travelled between Buffalo and NYC, we'd get off from 81 to come to the Quality Inn's restaurant. They had prime rib buffets at times, or otherwise good burgers. We once stood at that motel on the return from a Thanksgiving 82 trip because of bad sleet conditions.
US 11 used to curve down that ramp to the right until the 1950’s when they built that bypass of Five Mile Point. US 11 made a left about half a mile down that road (Crescent Dr) and if you kept straight you were on NY 17 headed towards NYC.
TRIVIA: I-86 is another one of those interstates that is duplicated in the system (like I-88). There's an I-86 entirely in Idaho, and another I-86 that connects Pennsylvania and New York. The PA-NY I-86 also doubles as a fragmented interstate (like both I-69 and I-49), with NY 17 connecting the disjointed portions.
🎵 🎶 welcome to New York just like that Taylor swift's song lol
NY 17 merged into US 11 here until around 1970 when I-81 and the Southern Tier Expressway were built.
Are you done with US 11 North to end in NY-Canada border crossing, I have watched most of your videos since 2019, very interesting and lots of history told from 504 road trips, keep up the awesome videos.

Those blue welcome signs are awful. I prefer the old green ones.
Great drive! Have you seen Hurricane Beryl left devastation in Lesser Antilles and Greater Antilles where many of them were destroyed, including Union Island where estimated 90% were destroyed, and there are 12 fatalities (3 in Grenada, 3 in Jamaica, and 3 in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines)? Elsewhere, Venezuela has 3 fatalities, making total of 12 fatalities at the time of writing this comment. And now it is heading to Texas and parts of Louisiana by Monday morning.
