This photo is actually showing a lot more of
Highway 17 then it is of Highway 17A. I am including this photo in the
Highway 17A gallery to show how seamless the transition from Highway 17A is
to Highway 17. I am standing in the
left turn lane from Highway 17A westbound to Highway 17 eastbound, straight
through the intersection is
Highway 17 west.

This photo shows the ends sign for Highway
17A at its western terminus. This is a very bland assembly as it only
shows that Highway 17A ends, not what it ends at (in this case it ends at
Highway 17).

This is picture shows the signage that one
encounters when traveling along Highway 17 from Kenora west into Manitoba.
Traffic can either turn left to continue along Highway 17 towards Manitoba
or turn right to take 17A east along the Kenora bypass. (Sorry about
the poor photo quality, the lighting was terrible when I came through
Kenora).
