Page "U.S. Route 11" Paragraph 43

In eastern Knoxville, US 11 splits into U. S. Route 11W and U. S. Route 11E, with US 70 following US 11E.

Both routes follow a northeasterly routing through northeastern Tennessee, with US 11W taking a more northerly course than its eastern alternate.

While US 11W passes through Blaine, Rutledge, Bean Station, Rogersville, Surgionsville, Church Hill, Mount Carmel and Kingsport, US 11E branches south to connect Jefferson City, Morristown, Greeneville, Jonesborough and Johnson City.

The two routes cross into Virginia at Bristol.
