History
When designated in the 1929, South Dakota 11 began at U.S. Highway 16 near Brandon, and continued north via Sherman (but bypassing Garretson) to Minnesota; a second segment began at South Dakota Highway 34 near Flandreau, running north to U.S. Highway 14 west of Elkton. This northern segment became South Dakota Highway 13 around 1935. A rerouting in the early 1940s brought SD 11 through Garretson.
Around 1960, SD 11 was brought into the east side of Sioux Falls, then extended southward to U.S. Highway 18 west of Canton. Around 1970, the extension southward to Elk Point was in place.

“The true theater of history is therefore the temperate zone.”
