'''Route 11''' is a highway in the northern part of the U.S. state of Missouri. Its northern terminus is at Route 15 near Baring; its southern terminus is at U.S. Route 24 west of Brunswick. The northern half of the route runs more east&ndash;west than north&ndash;south.<ref>{{Cite MoDOT map|year=2021}}</ref>

==Route description== Beginning at US 24 west of Brunswick, Route 11 travels north through Chariton County. Shortly after its starting point, the highway intersects Route M near Triplett and continues northward through rural farmland. Route 11 then passes through Mendon, where it intersects Route CC and Route C before continuing into Linn County.<ref>{{Cite MoDOT map|year=2021}}</ref>

In Linn County, Route 11 reaches Brookfield, where it intersects US 36, Route 5, and Route 110. The highway then continues northward, passing through St. Catharine and several small communities before entering Adair County. In Adair County, Route 11 intersects Route 149 near Novinger and continues eastward toward Kirksville.<ref>{{Cite MoDOT map|year=2021}}</ref>

Upon reaching Kirksville, Route 11 intersects US 63 and Route 6, forming a brief concurrency before separating again east of the city. The highway then enters Knox County, where it intersects Route 15 near Edina. Continuing northeast, Route 11 passes through Greensburg and Baring, where it reaches its northern terminus at the junction with Route 15 and Route K.<ref>{{Cite MoDOT map|year=2021}}</ref>
