New England Interstate Route 11

New England Interstate Route 11 (NE-11), also known as the Manchester-Biddeford Route, was a New England Interstate Route running from Manchester, Vermont to Biddeford, Maine via Franklin, New Hampshire. While the old route remains mostly intact as same numbered state highways in Vermont and New Hampshire, Maine rerouted its Route 11 northward by several hundred miles from Sanford all the way to Fort Kent. The original eastward alignment to Biddeford was re-designated as State Route 111 (connected to current Route 11 by U.S. Route 202). The current alignment of State Route 11 runs roughly parallel to Interstate 95 in Maine.

Famous quotes containing the words england, interstate and/or route:

    “I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man: wine is not so noble a liquor; and think of dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of warm coffee, or of an evening with a dish of tea! Ah, how low I fall when I am tempted by them! Even music may be intoxicating. Such apparently slight causes destroyed Greece and Rome, and will destroy England and America.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “At bottom, I mean profoundly at bottom, the FBI has nothing to do with Communism, it has nothing to do with catching criminals, it has nothing to do with the Mafia, the syndicate, it has nothing to do with trust-busting, it has nothing to do with interstate commerce, it has nothing to do with anything but serving as a church for the mediocre. A high church for the true mediocre.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
    —Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
