Interstate 11 (I-11) is a northwest-southeast Interstate Highway in the U.S. state of Nevada that currently follows U.S. Route 93 (US 93) and US 95 between Boulder City and Henderson. It is tentatively planned to run from Nogales, Arizona, to Reno, Nevada, along the current routes of I-19, I-10, US 93 and US 95. The bulk of the route is still the early discussion and planning stages, an exact route has yet to be determined. A number of recommended corridor alternatives have been identified.
As originally proposed in the 2012 Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act, the highway would only run from Casa Grande, Arizona, to Las Vegas, Nevada, via Kingman and Buckeye, Arizona. This was to provide a direct Interstate link between the Las Vegas and Phoenix metropolitan areas, which are currently the two largest adjacent American cities lacking a direct freeway link. However, extensions to the corridor towards Reno and south towards Tuscon have since been approved.
