Provincial Route 11 is a 583-kilometre-long (362 mi) Argentine road in the East of Buenos Aires Province. The road extends from Punta Lara (starting in the junction with PR 19) to the town of Mar del Sur.[1]
Route 11 runs along the coasts of the Río de la Plata and the Atlantic Ocean, with a high number of car passing the road during summertime. The path between Magdalena and the intersection with Provincial Route 36 is still a graved road so the route has not been paved to date. On the other hand, from the crossing with Provincial Route 63 (popularly known as Esquina de Crotto)[2] to the town of General Conesa, the route becomes a dual carriageway, totalizing 30 km with two carriages per way. The stretch between Pinamar and Villa Gesell the route becomes a dual carriageway again.
This road contributed to development of the cities situated on the Buenos Aires Province coast at the Nort of Mar del Plata, due to the only town of the region reached by railway was Pinamar. The train that departed from General Guido until its terminus in Divisadero de Pinamar (a branch-line of General Roca Railway from Buenos Aires to Mar del Plata) operated from 1949 to 1968, being reestablished in December, 1996 [3][4] although in April 2015 was closed again, remaining inactive to date.[5]
