Highway 417 looking east from the
Ottawa Road 29 overpass. The upper photo was taken a few weeks after
Highway 417 was extended westerly to just west of this interchange at
Arnprior from Panmure Road. In the 2004 photo, the right-hand
westbound lane had been blocked off in order to ease the transition from a
four to two lane highway. The lower photo was taken after the highway
had been extended further west through Arnprior until just east of Campbell
Drive.
Upper photo taken: October 23rd, 2004.

Highway 417 looking west from the
Galetta Road overpass in northeast Ottawa. Galetta Road is located
roughly at kilometre 176. Highway 417 features an intermittent treed
median from Galetta Sideroad, easterly to Ottawa Road 29. Click

in October, 2004, taken shortly after the highway had opened to traffic.

Driving westerly through the Geletta Sideroad overpass. The Geletta
Sideroad overpass features an unusual, single, solid and rectangular central
pier that is (to my knowledge) not repeatedly elsewhere on any other Ontario
freeway.

View looking easterly through the median of Highway 417 towards the twin
Mississippi River bridges. These structures carry the divided highway
not only overtop of the Mississippi River, but also over a large wetland
along the eastern river bank.

View looking westerly towards the twin highway bridges over the Mississippi
River bridges along Highway 417. Excluding the Skyway bridges along
the QEW in the Golden Horseshoe, the Mississippi River structures are among
the longest watercourse crossings on the 400-series of highways in
Ontario.

Looking west along Highway 417 from the Kinburn Sideroad. In the
distance of this photo, the twin Mississippi River bridges can be seen.
These structures were completed in 2002, (two years prior to Highway 417's
opening), and represented a major engineering achievement. The
structure is located atop a large wetland and floodplain, in an area with
notably poor soil quality. Click

Highway 417 looking west from Panmure
Road in Ottawa. Panmure Road marks the beginning of the recently
completed (September 2004) Highway 417 extension to Arnprior. The
clearing of trees that can be seen in the centre of the image marks the old
Highway 17 alignment that was severed in favour of the new Highway 417 freeway.
Highway 417 was built on an entirely new alignment from Panmure Road to
Arnprior, unlike previous freeway extensions from Highway 7 to Panmure Road.

September 2004, Panmure Drive was the last interchange along Highway 417
before it narrowed from 4- to 2-lanes, becoming Highway 17.

Looking east along Highway 417 from the Vaughan Sideroad overpass.
Notice the slight meander of the left (westbound) carriageway in the photo.
This carriageway was constructed in the mid 1960s and (quite surprisingly)
was not reconstructed when the highway was twinned in the late-1990s.
