Highway 17 is the Trans-Canada Highway.  Click here for Highway 17-East images
District of Thunder Bay The first westbound reassurance marker from Shabaqua Corners is posted with a Trans-Canada Highway marker.  The Ontario Official Road Map no longer shows Highway 11 as part of the Trans-Canada Highway network.  Ironically, the first westbound Highway 17 markers past Highway 11 doesn't included a Trans-Canada Highway shield.

District of Thunder Bay Reverse, easterly view from the previous location.  Note the scale of the rock cut.  It was no easy task to punch Highway 11 through the rugged wilderness that is Northwestern Ontario.  The Ontario Government spared no expense when construction Highway 11.  Less than 1000 vehicles use this highway on an average day.
