Isn't NC 111 a branch of NC 11 since the first two digits are the same? --NE2 16:12, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Originally yes, but over time the state gave up on the branch system as things got dislocated after updating to US Routes, adjusting with South Carolina and Virginia, and updating to Interstates. Answering your question, yes, the first two digits would indicate it as such. --WashuOtaku (talk) 16:36, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the NCRoads annex, I see that 111-119 were all created in or soon after 1930, and all were near NC 10, while only 111 was near 11. Most likely they ran out of 10x numbers and went to 11x. In any case, I'm removing that sentence from the article. --NE2 17:40, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
