Provincial Trunk Highway 11 (PTH 11) is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It runs from an intersection with PTH 59 near Victoria Beach to an intersection with PTH 1 near Falcon Lake and the Ontario boundary.
Route History
Before PTH 1 was designated as part of the Trans-Canada Highway system and realigned to its current route in 1962, PTH 11 had the distinction of being both a north-south and east-west highway much like current Provincial Trunk Highways 5, 20, and 50. From its current southern terminus with PTH 1, PTH 11 followed the current PTH 1 alignment to meet PTH 12 just north of Ste. Anne. As well, the original northern terminus of the highway was at Pine Falls, making the original length of the highway 197 km (122 mi.).
The current PTH 11 has also been modified from its original route as well. The section between PR 214 and PTH 44 was completed and opened in 1955. Prior to this, PTH 11 followed the current PR 214 route through the community of Milner Ridge and met PTH 44 (then known as Highway 1) at what is now Seddons Corner. It then shared the highway to its current east/south junction.
