^Looking east from the point where Ohio 211 turns onto Front Street, a few blocks west of Ohio 800, April 2026.

​Ohio State Route 211 is a tiny connector in Dover, Ohio, made to fill a gap in the state highway system. The whole situation starts with an interchange on the west side of Dover, where Interstate 77 connects with Ohio Route 39.  Ohio Route 39 heads easterly through the classic diamond interchange, but it subsequently turns right onto a frontage road on the east side of Interstate 77.  Ohio Route 211 begins by taking over the eastward alignment, in Ohio Route 39's wake.  This alignment is Tuscarawas Street, and it curves to the southeast into Dover.  Ohio Route 211 follows Tuscarawas Street until it turns northeasterly along Front Street. It only goes a few blocks down Front Street before ending at Ohio Route 800, which comes from the south to take over as the easterly designation down Front Street.

An older photo was previously featured for Ohio Route 211, but I have replaced that photo with a newer one. The older photo is still viewable at the bottom of this page, but the new photo, shown next, is better in quality, in my opinion. The sign dangling from the power pole isn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but the lighting is much better than in the old photo.

My newer photo for Ohio Route 211 comes from the eastern end of the route, along Ohio Route 800 in Dover. The photo shows a guide marker pointing out the impending turn onto Ohio Route 211 westbound. Those heading north on Route 800 now understand that Ohio Route 211 begins with a left turn at the traffic signal just across the bridge. This photo was taken in April 2026 on a trip across Ohio.

My older photo for Ohio State Route 211 looks southeast as a confusing sign assembly in Dover.  Tuscarawas Street, carrying Ohio Route 211, bends from easterly to southeasterly at the junction with Slingluff Street. The trailblazer shown marks the start of the southeasterly angle, but the banner is probably wrong.  This photo was taken during the grand tour of the northeastern quarter of Ohio in October 2022.
