State Route 211 (SR 211, OH 211) is a 1.23-mile (1.98 km) long northsouth state highway in the eastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Though physically it runs in a northwesterly–southeasterly direction, according to the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) straight line diagrams[1] and signage on the route itself[2] its southern terminus is located north of its northern terminus. The highway runs from its signed northern terminus at a signalized intersection with SR 800 near downtown Dover to its signed southern terminus at a signalized intersection with SR 39 on the border of the city and Dover Township, just one block east of Exit 83 off the Interstate 77 (I-77)/U.S. Route 250 (US 250) freeway.

SR 211 almost runs entirely within Dover in central Tuscarawas County. The highway begins at a signalized intersection with SR 800, where Wooster Avenue and Front Street. SR 211 runs southwest from this junction along Front Street through a commercial district. It sraddles the northwestern banks of the Tuscarawas River until it arrives at Tuscarawas Avenue traffic signal. From there, SR 211 turns to the northwest, and follows Tuscarawas Avenue amidst a business district prior to passing into a residential neighborhood. Passing to the southwest of Dover High School, SR 211 continues amidst a vast residential area until it arrives at the Slingluff Avenue signalized intersection. At this point, SR 211 turns to the west-northwest, and proceeds past some commercial businesses and across a set of railroad tracks prior to arriving at its endpoint in Dover Township where it meets SR 39 at a signalized intersection, a very short distance east of where SR 39 meets I-77/US 250.[3]
