History
In 1970, the section of Interstate 380 between the current exit 8 and 13 opened to traffic, and the
U.S. Route 611 designation was moved onto that portion of highway. The original U.S. 611 still parallels Interstate 380 approximately 200 yards to the east through Gouldsboro State Park but is now known as Coolbaugh TR 627. The road is now closed to traffic. Locally, it is often known as "Old Route 611".
Until 1972, PA State Route 611 remained designated U.S. Route 611, and continued north to

in Scranton. That same year, the portion south of Tobyhanna was decommissioned to a state highway.
The stretch between Gouldsboro and Elmhurst Township is now Route 435. Route 611's southern terminus had always been in Center City Philadelphia at the junction with Route 3; it was extended south to I-95 in 1987. The overhead directional signs at the south end of the PA 611 Doylestown Bypass northbound still point towards the Bypass as "U.S. 611".

, but instead US 611 was rerouted from its all-Pennsylvania route to cross the river twice in order to use the better-quality road on the New Jersey side. The Portland-Delaware Water Gap section of U.S. 611 became
U.S. Route 611 Alternate. Route 46, therefore, no longer crossed into Pennsylvania; its western terminus became the junction with U.S. 611 at the intersection at the Portland-Columbia Toll Bridge.

was realigned onto the freeway a mile past the Delaware Water Gap Bridge as well. (The old alignment of U.S. 209 was redesignated as U.S. 209 Business.)
By 1972, Interstate 80 became the exclusive route for this area of freeway, and by the end of 1973 the New Jersey portion of Interstate 80 was also complete. From 1972-73, the roads on the New Jersey side of the Delaware River were extensively realigned into a complex group of ramps. At this point, U.S. 611 was realigned to its former Pennsylvania alignment and became Pennsylvania Route 611 (due to the completion of the

U.S. 46 was realigned to the former U.S. 611 alignment, terminating at Interstate 80 at the new interchange. The Columbia-Portland Bridge approaches on the New Jersey side were rebuilt to feed directly into Route 94. The only U.S. 611 shield in New Jersey is located on the approach to the Columbia-Portland bridge from U.S. 46 East.
