[edit] Route description
The southern terminus of State Road 111 is at a dead end on the shores of the Ohio River, near the small community of New Boston. From here, it runs to the north and east, closely following the course of the river for about 13 miles (21 km), at which point it intersects with the east–west State Road 211. It continues to follow the river toward New Albany, where it is concurrent with Main Street and passes under Interstate 64 and U.S. Route 150 (with no interchange). Leaving Main Street, it follows Vincennes Street, then Charlestown Road. State Road 311 begins where State Road 111 turns onto Beechwood Avenue; the former runs northeast whereas the latter runs northwest, then follows the north–south Grant Line Road. On the north side of town, it has an interchange with Interstate 265 at exit number 3, then continues to its northern terminus at State Road 60 near Bennettsville.[2]
[edit] History
Before 1935, SR 111 was known as SR 133. When U.S. Route 33 (US 33) commissioned in Indiana, SR 33 was decommissioned. SR 133 followed the same route as SR 111.[1][3]
