It begins at the Pennsylvania state line in Mina and follows the Southern Tier Expressway east through Corning to Binghamton and the Quickway from Binghamton east to Woodbury, where it turns south to follow the Orange Turnpike to the New Jersey state line near Suffern, where it connects to New Jersey Route 17. From the Pennsylvania border to the village of Waverly and from Binghamton to Windsor, NY 17 is concurrent with Interstate 86 (I-86). Eventually, the entire east–west portion of NY 17 from the Pennsylvania border to Woodbury will become I-86 as projects to upgrade the route to Interstate Highway standards are completed.At {{convert|397|mi|km}}, NY 17 is the longest state route in New York, and is the second-longest highway of any kind in the state, beside the Thruway. It serves 11 counties (Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, Allegany, Steuben, Chemung, Tioga, Broome, Delaware, Sullivan, Orange, and Rockland), passes through the cities of Salamanca, Olean, Corning, Elmira, and Binghamton, and enters the vicinity of several others, including Jamestown and Middletown. As it proceeds across the state, it intersects many of New York's Interstate and U.S. Highways, including U.S. Route 219 (US 219) in Salamanca, I-390 in Avoca, I-99 and US 15 near Corning, I-81 in Binghamton, and I-84 near Middletown. The portion of NY 17 in the vicinity of Waverly is actually located in Pennsylvania; however, it is maintained by the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT). A very small portion of the route is concurrent with the Thruway in the area of Hillburn for less than {{convert|0.5|mi|km}} and is therefore maintained by the New York State Thruway Authority, but otherwise NY 17 is maintained by NYSDOT.The route was assigned in 1924, extending from Westfield to Suffern via at-grade highways. It was moved onto the Quickway and the Southern Tier Expressway as sections of both were completed from the 1950s to the 1980s. Two of NY 17's suffixed routes, NY 17C and NY 17M, follow substantial portions of NY 17's pre-freeway alignment. In 1998, all of NY 17 between the Pennsylvania state line and Harriman was designated as "Future I-86". The westernmost {{convert|177|mi|0}} of the route was designated as I-86 one year later, and the designation has been gradually extended eastward as sections of NY 17 were improved to Interstate Highway standards. Prior to the I-86 designation, NY 17 was part of a 3-state Route 17 along with New Jersey Route 17 and the former Pennsylvania Route 17 (PA 17).

Route description

{{refimprove|section|date = November 2022}}

Pennsylvania to Elmira

(File:Southern Tier Expressway.svg|100px|right|thumb|Route marker used along the Southern Tier Expressway)NY 17 begins as a freeway at the point where I-86 crosses the New York–Pennsylvania border in Mina, Chautauqua County. I-86 heads westward from there to its western terminus at I-90. I-86 and NY 17 continue eastward through the Southern Tier, encountering NY 426 (exit 4) a short distance from the state line prior to meeting NY 76 (exit 6) south of Sherman. East of exit 8 (NY 394), I-86 and NY 17 cross Chautauqua Lake and follow the lake shore eastward to Jamestown, where it connects to NY 60 at exit 12 due north of the city. East of the city, the freeway meets US 62 at exit 14 and is joined by the old Erie Railroad line, which parallels the freeway as it heads across southern New York.Between exits 17 and 18 (NY 280), I-86 and NY 17 cross the Allegheny Reservoir near its northernmost extent. Past NY 280, the freeway runs adjacent to the northern extent of the Allegany State Park and follows the reservoir and the connecting Allegheny River eastward to Salamanca. Near downtown Salamanca, I-86 and NY 17 meet US 219 (exit 21). US 219 joins the freeway east to exit 23 near Carrollton, where it splits from I-86 and NY 17 and heads toward Bradford, Pennsylvania, forming the eastern edge of the state park as it heads south. Meanwhile, the freeway continues east to Olean, where it meets NY 417 (a previous alignment of NY 17) at exit 24 west of town and NY 16 (exit 27) north of the area.Past Olean, the route drifts northward away from Pennsylvania toward Hornell, where I-86 and NY 17 intersect NY 36 (exit 34). To the east in Avoca, the Southern Tier Expressway meets I-390 at exit 36. I-86 and NY 17 southeast from the junction, passing through Bath on its way an interchange with I-99 and US 15 in Painted Post (exit 44). Here, I-99 and US 15 begin and head south toward Pennsylvania, while I-86 and NY 17 continue east through Corning to the city of Elmira.

Elmira to Harriman

(File:State border sign on NY 17.jpg|thumb|left|Sign along eastbound NY 17 marking return to New York after its brief foray into Pennsylvania)From Elmira to Binghamton, NY 17, the Erie Railroad (now operated by Norfolk Southern as the Southern Tier Line), and its old alignments generally stay close together. They follow the Chemung River to exit 60 (US 220 in South Waverly, Pennsylvania) and the Susquehanna River from east of exit 61 (Waverly, New York) to Binghamton; on the latter section, both NY 17C and NY 434 are old NY 17. Between the two rivers, which intersect in Pennsylvania, the general corridor runs just north of the state line in New York. NY 17 itself crosses into Pennsylvania for approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) between a point west of exit 60 and a point west of exit 61; additionally, all the ramps at exit 60 and portions of the eastbound ramps at exits 59A and 61 are in Pennsylvania. Despite being in Pennsylvania, it is still signed as NY 17, and these roadways are still maintained by the New York State Department of Transportation.WEB,weblink NY 17 Waverly, NY/South Waverly, PA, September 26, 1998, Michael G., Koerner, Highway Feature of the Week, Gribblenation.net, May 8, 2010, {{sps|certain=yes|date=October 2022}}MAP, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, General Highway Map – Bradford County, Pennsylvania,weblink 2015, December 25, 2015, PDF, The Southern Tier Expressway is marked with circular shields instead of keystones and labeled "NY 17" instead of just "17". At the Tioga County line near Waverly, I-86 temporarily terminates as NY 17 continues eastward toward Binghamton.Near downtown Binghamton, NY 17 goes around the side of Prospect Mountain at what is locally known as "kamikaze curve".Curve - Binghamton, New York" Heading eastbound, the freeway curves sharply left around the hillside, splits into ramps to I-81 north and south, and curves right to merge into I-81 south as it passes over the Chenango River. From that point east and southeast about 5 miles (8 km), I-81 and NY 17 run concurrently. NY 17 splits from I-81, the Erie Railroad and the Susquehanna River to the east into Stilson Hollow; from this split (exit 75) to its end, most of NY 17 does not follow the Erie Railroad, which crosses into Pennsylvania several times.At the end of Stilson Hollow, NY 17 heads over a summit and into the valley formed by the Occanum Creek. The creek empties into the Susquehanna River at Windsor (exit 79), which NY 17 follows southeast to Damascus (exit 80) before turning northeast along Tuscarora Creek. It soon turns east and southeast over a summit, rejoining the Erie Railroad just north of Gulf Summit. The highway and railroad head east along Oquaga Creek to Deposit (exit 84), where they turn southeast along the West Branch Delaware River, where NY 17 briefly becomes a surface road. A gap in the freeway stretches from here to just short of Hancock (exit 87), the place the West Branch joins with the East Branch Delaware River. The Erie Railroad continues southeast along the combined Delaware River, while NY 17 turns east along the valley formed by the East Branch, either closely following or built directly over the abandoned New York, Ontario and Western RailwayWEB, Bill, Schneider, n.d.,weblink To the Mountains… 50 Years Later, The Old Woman in the Back Bedroom,weblink" title="web.archive.org/web/20121103164151weblink">weblink November 3, 2012, {{sps|certain=yes|date=October 2022}} to Liberty.At East Branch (exit 90), the East Branch Delaware River turns north, and NY 17 continues east with the Beaver Kill to Roscoe (exit 94), Willowemoc Creek to Livingston Manor (exit 96), and Little Beaver Kill to Parksville (exit 98). The highway and parallel NYO&W pass south over a summit to Liberty (exits 99–100), and continue along the Middle Mongaup River to Ferndale (exit 101). The NYO&W turned east there, but NY 17 continues south over a summit and into the Spring Brook and East Mongaup River valleys past Harris (exit 102). NY 17 then cuts southeast cross-country to Monticello (exit 104; passing Monticello Raceway) and beyond, following the old Newburgh and Cochecton Turnpike (old NY 17) to Bloomingburg (exit 116). The old Middletown and Wurtsboro Turnpike, also old NY 17, and partially NY 17M, runs south to Middletown, which NY 17 cuts cross-country to bypass to the east, rejoining NY 17M – and the main line of the Erie Railroad – at Goshen (exit 123). NY 17, its old former alignment (NY 17M) and the Erie run generally east-southeast, partly cross-country and partly through small stream valleys, to the end of the freeway, the directional change in NY 17 from east–west to north–south, and the junction of the Erie with its branch to Newburgh.

Harriman to New Jersey

NY 17 heads southwest from the Quickway as a surface road, passing through the village of Woodbury before entering the village of Harriman, where it intersects with the eastern terminus of NY 17M.{{Google maps|url=https://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=RT-17+%4041.313118,+-74.138590&daddr=Korean+War+Veterans+Memorial+Hwy%2FRT-17%2FRT-59+%4041.134835,+-74.166591+to:I-287+S%2FRT-17+S+%4041.117661,+-74.161818+to:41.11285,-74.162753&hl=en&geocode=FV5jdgIdIryU-w%3BFfOqcwIdwU6U-w%3BFd1ncwIdZmGU-w%3B&mra=mi&mrcr=2&mrsp=3&sz=18&sll=41.113071,-74.16214&sspn=0.002971,0.006958&ie=UTF8&ll=41.131284,-74.158916&spn=0.047516,0.111322&t=h&z=14 |title= Overview Map of NY 17 from Harriman to New Jersey |access-date=January 20, 2008}} As the route heads southward from this junction, its signage changes from being east or west to north or south. The route parallels the Thruway as it proceeds through a disjointed piece of Harriman State Park and enters the town of Tuxedo. While inside the park, NY 17 intersects Arden Valley Road, a parkway that connects to Seven Lakes Drive deep inside the park.MAP, The New York–New Jersey Trail Conference, Harriman–Bear Mountain Trail Maps, Map 4, The New York–New Jersey Trail Conference, 2005, South of Arden Valley Road, NY 17 briefly exits Harriman State Park and enters the hamlet of Southfields, where it intersects with County Route 19 (CR 19) and passes by the Red Apple Rest, a former restaurant and roadside attraction.(File:2017-09-10 10 01 54 View north along Interstate 287 and New York State Route 17 (Middlesex Freeway) just south of Interstate 87 (New York State Thruway) within Hillburn Village in the Town of Ramapo, Rockland County, New York.jpg|thumb|View north along NY 17 and I-287 as it enters New York from New Jersey)Past the hamlet, the route heads back into the park and intersects with NY 17A and CR 106 near the park's western boundary. South of the junction, NY 17 leaves the park and proceeds through a lightly populated area to the village of Tuxedo Park. At the Tuxedo Park train station is access to some hiking trails in Harriman State Park.MAP, The New York–New Jersey Trail Conference, Harriman–Bear Mountain Trail Maps, Map 3, The New York–New Jersey Trail Conference, 2005, The route continues on, paralleling the Thruway into Rockland County. On the other side of the county line, NY 17 enters the village of Sloatsburg, where it meets Seven Lakes Drive and connects to CR 72 by way of a modified trumpet interchange.Outside of Sloatsburg, NY 17 winds its way as an expressway southeasterly along the Ramapo River and the Thruway through the town of Ramapo to the hamlet of the same name, based just north of NY 17's junction with NY 59. Here, NY 17 turns to the southwest, merging onto the Thruway southbound at exit 15A, traversing a sparsely developed area of the village of Hillburn. About {{convert|0.75|mi|2}} south of merging onto the Thruway, NY 17 passes to the south of the village center as it approaches I-287. At exit 15A for New Jersey, NY 17 leaves the Thruway and merges with I-287 southbound and proceeds to the New Jersey state line, where it connects to New Jersey's Route 17. An old alignment of NY 17 in Hillburn, now called Old Route 17 used to go around the Thruway instead of merging onto it.

History

Origins

Before the automobile

(File:Map of Liberty Highway.png|thumb|400px|right|Map of the Liberty Highway)From Binghamton to Corning, NY 17 follows the course of the Great Bend and Bath Turnpike, which was legislated in 1808 to continue the Cochecton and Great Bend Turnpike (US 11) through the Susquehanna Valley. The road ran from the Pennsylvania state line at Great Bend through Binghamton, Owego, and Elmira to Bath. In its day, it was a major route of travel through the Susquehanna Valley.BOOK, Lawyer, William S,weblink Binghamton : its settlement, growth and development, and the factors in its history, 1800-1900, Century Memorial Publishing Co, 1900, 267, Today, the road is designated US 11 from Pennsylvania to Binghamton, then NY 17C to Waverly, NY 352 into Corning, and NY 415 to Bath. The at-grade sections of NY 17 in Orange County follow the Orange Turnpike south of Southfields and the New Windsor and Cornwall Turnpike to its north.

Liberty Highway and Legislative Route 4

The original routing of NY 17, from Westfield to Harriman, was largely designated in 1908 by the New York State Legislature as Route 4, an unsigned legislative route. This routing was incorporated in 1918 as the main portion of an auto trail called the Liberty Highway, which connected New York City to Cleveland via Hackensack, Liberty, the Southern Tier, and Erie.MAGAZINE, Johnston, R. J., The Liberty Highway: Touring and Driveaway Route Between Cleveland and New York, Motor Age, April 4, 1918, 33, 14, 72–75,weblink January 17, 2013, Legislative Route 4 began at legislative Route 18 (current US 20) in Westfield and proceeded southeast through Mayville to Jamestown on what is now NY 394 and NY 430. From there, the route headed generally eastward to Salamanca over modern NY 394, NY 242, and NY 353, and southeast to Olean via NY 417. At Olean, the route shifted northward, passing through Hinsdale, Friendship, and Belvidere on current NY 16, NY 446 and Allegany County's CR 20 before returning southward on what is now NY 19 to access the village of Wellsville.BOOK,weblink State of New York Department of Highways, The Highway Law, 1909, J. B. Lyon Company, Albany, New York, 54–55, May 7, 2010, BOOK,weblink New York State Department of Highways, Report of the State Commissioner of Highways, 1920, J. B. Lyon Company, Albany, New York, 502–505, 556, May 7, 2010, (File:SR 17 NY.jpg|thumb|left|NY 17 at Liberty, New York)From Wellsville to Andover and from Jasper to Corning, Route 4 followed modern NY 417. In between Andover and Jasper, however, Route 4 veered north on current NY 21 and NY 36 to serve Hornell. East of Corning, the alignment of legislative Route 4 ran along the Great Bend and Bath Turnpike, and more closely resembled the modern alignments of the Southern Tier Expressway and the Quickway. Route 4 exited Corning on what is now NY 352 and followed it to Big Flats, where it broke from NY 352 and proceeded to Horseheads on Chemung CR 64 and to Elmira on what is now Lake Road, Madison Avenue and the east end of NY 352. Between Elmira and Binghamton, Route 4 followed either local roads that were bypassed or upgraded into the Southern Tier Expressway, namely modern NY 17 and Chemung and Tioga CR 60 from Elmira to Waverly, NY 17C between Waverly and Owego, NY 434 from Owego to Vestal, and NY 17C and Riverside Drive (via NY 26) from Vestal to Binghamton.Route 4 exited the city on US 11 and followed it to Kirkwood Center, a hamlet adjacent to the eastern junction of NY 17 and I-81. From this point to Harriman, except for one section near Middletown, the path Route 4 followed became the basis for the Quickway several decades later. Between Kirkwood Center and Hancock, Route 4 utilized what was later upgraded into the Quickway (via Broome CR 28 from Windsor to Deposit). East of here, it used parallel roads instead: modern "Old Route 17" (Delaware CR 17 and Sullivan CRs 179A to 174) from Deposit to Monticello, Sullivan CRs 173 to 171 between Monticello and Bloomingburg, and Orange CR 76 and NY 17M from Bloomingburg to Harriman. At Harriman, Route 4 broke from the Liberty Highway and proceeded northeast over current US 6 and NY 293 to Highland Falls, where it ended at legislative Route 3 (modern US 9W). The portion of the Liberty Highway between Suffern and Harriman became part of legislative Route 39-b in 1911;BOOK,weblink State of New York Commission of Highways, The Highway Law, 1919, J. B.

By 1932, an alternate route of NY 17 between the New Jersey state line at Hillburn and the hamlet of Ramapo on the western bank of the Ramapo River was designated as NY 339. The route largely followed the path of modern I-287 and the New York State Thruway between the two locations.

Conversion to expressway

The explosive growth of the tourism industry in the Catskill Mountains region, which began in the 1930s and intensified after World War II, stretched the rural road to its limits. Scores of hotels, resorts and bungalow colonies attracted hundreds of thousands of vacationing New Yorkers, whose cars left the two-lane NY 17 hopelessly jammed in summer. Many towns, especially the fairly large city of Middletown, were paralyzed on Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons in the summertime, as traffic passed through local downtowns and their traffic lights.NEWS,weblink Empty Tables and Full Memories; Lines Are Gone at Fabled Cafeteria on Way to Catskills, The New York Times, August 30, 1999, Berger, Joseph, December 18, 2007, On a Friday night at the sweltering height of summer, cars would lumber up in an unbroken stream, their radiators already gurgling steam from two hours of stop-and-go driving along the two-lane morass of Route 17 -- mocked by exasperated World War II veterans as the Burma Road. Out would spill dozens of Irvs, Sams and Murrays, drained from a week of muscular work and lonely for their wives and children up in the bungalows in places like Swan Lake and Monticello., In addition, the tight turns and steep inclines along the route led to numerous fatal crashes, including two milk tanker truck crashes in the mid-1950s. In response, New York State officials planned a four-lane replacement, the first free long-distance expressway in the state and one of the earliest in the United States. It would replace intersections with well-spaced access ramps, separate grades with flyovers, and allow safe travel at up to {{convert|65|mi/h|km/h}}.NEWS, Ingraham, Joseph C., Paving the Way to the Catskills, The New York Times, October 19, 1958, File:Old_NY_17_through_Red_House.jpg|left|thumb|NY 17's former alignment in the town of Red House, abandoned and banned from traffic]]The first segment of the new highway extended from Fair Oaks to Goshen, bypassing the city of Middletown to the northeast.

Other developments

The New York State Thruway Authority converted the Harriman Toll Barrier at the interchange of NY 17 and I-87 (exit 16 on I-87) to cashless tolling. This included the creation of a solar photovoltaic energy generating facility (solar park) to help power the toll and maintenance facilities in Harriman, Woodbury, Spring Valley, and Nyack. Cashless tolling began on the night of September 27, 2018. This was a part of Governor Andrew Cuomo's goal to convert the entirety of the New York Thruway to cashless tolling.WEB,weblink Governor Cuomo Announces Start of Construction for $150 Million Road, Transit & Economic Development Hub in the Town of Woodbury, November 29, 2017, Governor Andrew M.
