Pennsylvania Route 611 (PA 611), formerly U.S. Route 611 (US 611), is a major state highway in Pennsylvania, United States, running from Interstate 95 south of downtown Philadelphia north to Interstate 380 in Coolbaugh Township, Pennsylvania in The Poconos.
Within Philadelphia, PA 611 is also Broad Street, the main north-south street in Philadelphia and the traditional route for the annual Mummers Parade. (The exception is for the five blocks just south of Cheltenham Avenue, where PA 611 bears right onto Old York Road.)
PA 611 begins at an interchange with I-95 in the South Philadelphia section of the city of Philadelphia, heading north on Broad Street. South of I-95, Broad Street continues into the former Philadelphia Navy Yard. From the southern terminus, the route follows an eight-lane divided section of Broad Street that is also known as the Southern Boulevard Parkway, running between Franklin Delano Roosevelt Park to the west and the South Philadelphia Sports Complex to the east. At Pattison Avenue, SEPTA's Broad Street Line, a subway line, begins to run under the route from its terminus at AT&T station. Past the sports complex, the road runs through urban neighborhoods and comes to an interchange with I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway), which heads east towards the Walt Whitman Bridge into New Jersey.
