State Road 211 is a short east–west connector route in southeast Harrison County in the U.S. State of Indiana.

Route description

[edit]

State Road 211 begins at an intersection with State Road 11 northeast of the town of Elizabeth. SR 211 proceeds east through a rural portion of Posey Township, soon turning southeast and winding down a hill, the route reaches a junction with State Road 111 in Sugar Grove, which marks the eastern terminus of the route, just 2.04 miles (3.28 km) east of where it started. The terminus is a short distance away from the Ohio River.[2][3]

No section of SR 211 is listed on the National Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility and defense.[4][5] The highway is maintained by the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) like all other state roads in the state. The department tracks the traffic volumes along all state highways as a part of its maintenance responsibilities using a metric called average annual daily traffic (AADT). This measurement is a calculation of the traffic level along a segment of roadway for any average day of the year. In 2010, INDOT figured that the traffic levels present on SR 211 were 2,490 vehicles and 60 commercial vehicles daily.[6]

Major intersections
