North of I-80, it wouldn't happen now.
Between I-80 and I-70 (with Oh 7), would still happen.
Please, don't sue Alex & Andy over what I wrote above

It would be built north of I-80 up to OH 82 to connect to Warren. I could also see it existing in some form north of I-90 to serve Ashtabula. Otherwise, yeah. Other than a slightly higher speed limit, there's not much benefit to OH 11 compared to the adjacent state routes north of Youngstown.

If there was some better connectivity at the I-80/OH 11 /I-680 interchange or a I-76/OH 11 interchange, I could also see OH 711 going away. It really just exists to serve the missing movements from the other interchanges.

Michigan is 50/50 on their roads. A lot of them have been getting fixed and getting road diets, others are just getting fixed and others are still in bad shape. Not sure if it was on this forum or not but I have seen where people question the 8 lanes of I-75 between Flint and Saginaw and every time I see someone say anything about it I think you've probably never driven that stretch of highway before.

Yepper.   :nod:

Just that rest area along the SB side with the surface crossover lanes for it to serve the NB side is all of the evidence that one needs.
