Present Day Hwy 811 Photographs

Right - Sign assemblies at Hwy 811's eastern terminus at Hwy 527
Left - View of Hwy 811 immediately west of Hwy 527 Junction
Right - Facing west on Hwy 811 about 15 km west of Hwy 527 Junction
Left - View of Hwy 811 about 40 km west of Hwy 527. The road here is wide and well-maintained.
Right - View of Hwy 811 about 50 km west of Hwy 527. The road here is much narrower.
Left - Hwy 811 is primarily a forest access road. The eastern portions of this highway are frequently used by logging companies to reach their forest harvesting areas, and thus the road is well maintained. Beyond the areas which are being actively harvested, Hwy 811 is in a relatively poor state of repair. The area shown in this photo was last harvested in the 1980s, and therefore, the road sees virtually no traffic anymore. The highway near Weaver River is becoming quite overgrown with weeds.
Right - There are places where fallen trees obstruct part of the roadway near Weaver River
Left - The only eastbound route marker on Hwy 811 is just east of the Weaver River Bridge
Right - The "Hwy 811 Ends" sign at the Weaver River Bridge used to be a "TO 800" trailblazer! This sign marks the end of Ontario's highest-numbered signed provincial highway.
Left - The western terminus of Hwy 811 is at the one-lane Weaver River Bridge
Right - View of the southern side of the Weaver River Bridge at the western end of Hwy 811
