King's Highway 400A was a 400-series highway in the Canadian province of Ontario that was unsigned and is now the southern end of Highway 11. The short 1.1-kilometre (0.7 mi) freeway link connected Highway 400 with Highway 11 and Simcoe County Road 93, formerly Highway 93. The route was created as a result of an original segment being bypassed by an extension of Highway 400 to Coldwater that opened in late 1959. The Highway 400A route number was only used internally as the road has always featured Highway 400 signage in the southbound direction and Highway 11 signage northbound. In 1997, Highway 400A was eliminated when the road was redesignated as an extension of Highway 11, resulting in Highway 11's southern terminus being directly at Highway 400, while the rest of Highway 11 south from Barrie to Toronto was downloaded to municipal authorities.
