Arkansas Highway 17 (AR 17) is a designation for six state highways in east Arkansas. One segment of 4.9 miles (7.9 km) begins near the Ward Reservoir, in southern Arkansas County and runs north to the La Grue Bayou. A second segment of 11.4 miles (18.3 km) runs from Morgan Loop Road south of Ethel north to Highway 1 at St. Charles. A third segment of 21.8 miles (35.1 km) runs from Highway 1 at Cross Roads north to U.S. Route 79 (US 79) at Park Grove. A fourth segment of 10.6 miles (17.1 km) runs from US 79 east of Clarendon north to US 70 southwest of Brinkley. A fifth segment of 55.7 miles (89.6 km) runs from US 49 in Brinkley north to Highway 14 in Newport. A sixth segment of 9.4 miles (15.1 km) runs from Highway 18 in Diaz north to Highway 37 west of Tuckerman.[1][2][3][4]
Highway 17 begins near the Ward Reservoir in southern Arkansas County as a continuation of Billy Cotten Lane. From there, the route heads north, until reaching a three-way intersection with Highway 152 at DeLuce. From there, the route starts to head east and ends at the La Grue Bayou, about 1.8 miles (2.9 km) east of the intersection.
The route begins at Morgan Loop Road south of Ethel and heads north for about 11.4 miles (18.3 km) until it reaches the intersection of Highway 1 in St. Charles, where it terminates.
Highway 17 begins at Highway 1 at Cross Roads and runs north, before sharing a concurrency with Highway 146 and a separate concurrency with Highway 86 in Holly Grove. About 6 miles (9.7 km) north of Holly Grove, Highway 17 comes to another three-way intersection with US 79 at Park Grove, where it terminates.
The route begins at US 79 east of Clarendon and runs north, intersecting Highway 241 at Keevil and Highway 302 right before the route's northern terminus at US 70 southwest of Brinkley.
Highway 17 begins at US 49 in Brinkley, just north of Interstate 40 (I-40). The route heads north for about 8.4 miles (13.5 km) before intersecting Highway 38 in Cotton Plant. Between Brinkley and Cotton Plant, the highway is designated as the "Sister Rosetta Tharpe Memorial Highway". Both highways share a concurrency heading east for about 1.7 miles (2.7 km) before heading north again. From there, the route continues to head north, intersecting Highway 306 north of Cotton Plant, and Highway 260 sharing a concurrency south of Patterson. The route will come to another three-way intersection with US 64 in Patterson, and will share a concurrency with US 64 for about 2 miles (3.2 km) until turning north in McCrory at the intersection of US 64 and Highway 145. The route continues towards Newport, intersecting Highway 37 north of McCrory, and Highway 33 sharing a concurrency near Tupelo, as well as the towns of Weldon and Auvergne. Highway 17 intersects Highway 14 at Erwin before an interchange with US 67 in Newport and terminates at Highway 14 shortly after.[citation needed] The entire route is about 55.7 miles (89.6 km) long.
The route begins at Highway 18 in Diaz and runs north for about a mile before intersecting Highway 157. Highway 17 then runs west for about 1.3 miles (2.1 km) before intersecting Highway 18 east of Jacksonport. The route then runs north for about 7.1 miles (11.4 km) before intersecting Highway 37 west of Tuckerman, where it terminates. The route intersects Highway 226 just south of the northern terminus.
