Sylvan Lake - Red Deer
Highway 11A:06 is a rare
This section of Highway 11A, including the decommissioned stretch between Benalto and Sylvan Lake, was the original route of Highway 11 before it was rerouted along 67 Street and 30 Avenue in Red Deer and extended east in the late 1980s.
The City of Red Deer is also planning to construct the North Highway Connector, also known as Northland Drive, which will serve as a northern bypass for Highway 11.[5][6] Phase I of the bypass at the Highway 2A / Highway 11A intersection along Northland Drive, cross the Red Deer River, and connect with Highway 11 at the 30th Avenue / 67th Street intersection; while Phase II would follow 20th Avenue.[7] It remains to be seen if the bypass will be signed as part of Highway 11A.
