Route description

Ward Reservoir to La Grue Bayou

Highway 17 begins east of the Ward Reservoir as a continuation of Billy Cotten Lane and runs 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.

Ethel to St. Charles

The route begins at Morgan Loop Road south of Ethel and runs north for about 11.4 miles (18.3 km) until it reaches the intersection of Highway 1 in St. Charles, where it terminates.

Cross Roads to Park Grove

The route begins at Highway 1 at Cross Roads and runs north, before sharing a 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.

Clarendon to Brinkley

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.

Brinkley to Newport

The route begins at US 49 in Brinkley, just north of Interstate 40 (I-40). Highway 17 heads north for about 8.4 miles (13.5 km) before intersecting Highway 38 in Cotton Plant. Between Brinkley and Cotton Plant, the route is designated as the "Sister Rosetta Tharpe Memorial Highway". Both routes share a concurrency heading east for about 1.7 miles (2.7 km) before heading north again. From there, Highway 17 continues to head north, intersecting Highway 306 north of Cotton Plant, and Highway 260 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 I-57/US 67/US 167 in Newport, and terminates at Highway 14 shortly after.

Diaz to Tuckerman

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.
