MTO has a plan to upgrade 11 to a full freeway eventually, but most of it doesn't really need to be done. The highway barely needs a second carriageway north of Huntsville, yet alone a freeway designation. That said, the elimination of at grade intersections up to Huntsville may be worth exploring as the highway is generally fairly busy until that point. None of it is really gaining any funding however as its not that busy of a road overall and the at grade intersections that do exist are low traffic and create few operational or safety issues.

What really needs to be done on 11 is upgrade the RIRO portion, especially south of Orillia. The stretch from Barrie to Orillia is pushing 50,000 AADT on an at grade road, its insane. Easily the most substandard road in the province, it needs to be upgraded to a 6 lane freeway very soon.
