U.S. 11 enters Tennessee alongside I-24 around Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga. The route overlaps with U.S. 64 east from Downtown to Cleveland, where a bypass route is designated. Following the I-75 corridor, U.S. 11 continues northeast to Athens, Sweetwater, Farragut and Knoxville.
Within Knoxville, U.S. 11 partitions into U.S. 11E/W. Both branch routes travel northeast. U.S. 11E heads to Morristown, Greeneville and Johnson City. U.S. 11W follows a more northerly course to Blaine, Rutledge and Kingsport. The two recombine in Bristol, Virginia, just north of the state line.
