    National Highway 11 or NH 11 is a National Highway in India that links Jaisalmer ( Rajasthan ) and Rewari ( Haryana ). This 691 km-long highway passes through Jaisalmer, Bikaner, Ratangarh, Fatehpur, Jhunjhunu, Narnaul and Rewari and also between Jaipur and Sikar. Most of 691 km length of National Highway 11 is in the state of Rajasthan and Haryana. NH 11 is an important tourism highway because it connects one of the most popular tourist destinations in India, Jaipur, Agra The UNESCO World Heritage site of Keoladeo National Park in Bharatpur also lies on this highway.

    Rewari bypass

    To create connectivity between NH 11 and NH 48 (Delhi-Jaipur national highway), a new stretch of NH 11 is being constructed bypassing Rewari city. The existing junction of NH 352 (Rohtak-Jhajjar-Rewari national highway) with NH 48 (Delhi-Jaipur national highway) will be the terminus or starting point of NH 11. The new alignment of NH 11 between NH 48 and Narnaul will bypass south of Rewari city and meet the existing Rewari-Narnaul road near Khori railway station. Thus vehicles going to or from Narnaul will not have to enter Rewari city.

    National Highway 11 (Old Number)

    Earlier, the old route of NH 11 started from Rajasthan-Uttar Pradesh border and went through Bharatpur, Mahwa, Dausa, Jaipur and Ringas to Sikar and then further to Fatehpur, Ratangarh, Dungargarh and terminated at Bikaner on old NH 15. It was 531 km long.

    The new route starts from NH 48 (Delhi-Jaipur national highway) in Rewari district and goes through Narnaul, Chirawa and Jhunjhunu to meet the old NH 11 at Sikar. From Bikaner it continues to Jaisalmer.
