Pictures continue westward on Highway 417 - Ottawa Images Section
City of Ottawa	Westbound guide signage approaching the Highway 417 interchange. The left two lanes default to Highway 417 West, while the right lane rounds a long loop ramp towards Highway 417 East. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Advanced signage for the loop ramp to Highway 417 East. An extra lane was added on approach to the Highway 417 interchange during the 2010 construction season. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Eastbound advanced signage for Blair Road. Likely because Highway 17 was downloaded, Highway 17's guide sign stock is quite old, predating MTO's switch to rounded advanced arrows. Photo taken: September 12th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	View looking westerly from the OC Transpo pedestrian overpass west of Blair Road towards the Highway 417 interchange. Photo taken: July 2nd, 2012.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view towards the Blair Road interchange from the OC Transpo pedestrian overpass. Photo taken: July 2nd, 2012.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view at the eastbound ramp to Blair Road. Blair Road meets Highway 17 at a five ramp parclo AB3. Photo taken: September 12th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	Looking westerly towards Highway 417 from Blair Road. Notice the old rounded street lighting. When the Ottawa Queensway was first constructed in the 1960s, all illuminated sections of the freeway were lit with this light design. Photo taken: July 2nd, 2012.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Looking easterly from the Blair Road overpass towards the eastbound OC Transpo flyover. The narrow median coupled with cable median barrier is very reminiscent of the QEW through Niagara Region during the 1970s and 80s. Photo taken: July 2nd, 2012.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Driving westerly along Highway 17 at the Blair Road interchange. The auxiliary lane that joined Highway 17 West at the Montreal Road interchange departs the freeway at the Blair Road off-ramp. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Westbound view approaching Blair Road as the OC Transpo transitway departs the freeway. The transitway follows its own alignment by-passing Highway 17 and Highway 417 through much of Ottawa before rejoining Highway 417 in Kanata. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Eastbound guide signage at the Montreal Road interchange. The MTO used an odd mix of the standard regional road 'flower pot' shield with Ottawa's stylized shield when they signed Highway 17 through Eastern Carleton County. Photo taken: September 12th, 2009.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	Westerly view towards the Montreal Road interchange from the Rockcliffe Parkway overpass. Photo taken: July 2nd, 2012.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view from the Rockcliffe Parkway overpass towards Orléans. Photo taken: July 2nd, 2012.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Westbound advanced signage for the Montreal Road interchange as Highway 17 passes underneath of the Rockcliffe Parkway overpass. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	This view looks west along Highway 17 from Orléans Boulevard towards the Boulevard Jean d'Arc interchange. Picture taken: October 22nd, 2004.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	Looking easterly along Highway 17 from Orléans Boulevard. Photo taken: October 22nd, 2004.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	This view looks westerly along Highway 17 from the Champlain Street overpass. The pedestrian overpass pictured in the photo links Place d'Orléans, a large suburban shopping mall to both the eastbound and westbound OC Transpo stations as well as a carpark to the north of the freeway. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Eastbound view along Highway 17 from the Champlain Street overpass. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Overhead guide signage for the Champlain Street et al. interchange. In terms of modern-day highway signage in Ontario, this exit signage is huge! It would be difficult to convert this to a modern design. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Advanced signage for the ramp to Champlain Street and Place d'Orléans Drive. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Westerly view from the Tenth Line overpass towards the Champlain Street interchange. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Guide signage northbound along Tenth Line for old Highway 17, now Ottawa road 174. This sign was obviously very hastily overlaid by Ottawa staff after accepting the transferred Highway 17. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	Two views looking easterly along Highway 17 from the Tenth Line Road overpass. The eastbound off-ramp for Tenth Line has a fairly substantial structure over seemingly nothing between the freeway and its terminus at a set of traffic lights. Oddly, the eastbound on-ramp from Tenth Line doesn't feature a simmilar structure. Photos taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600) (720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Westbound signage for the Tenth Line interchange along Highway 17. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960)
City of Ottawa	Westbound advanced signage for the 10th Line interchange along Highway 17. The 10th Line interchange was completed in 1994. Notice the similar style of the signage and gantry to that of Hamilton's Lincoln M. Alexander Parkway, or "Linc". Unsurprisingly, the "Linc" was completed only a few years after the Tenth Line interchange. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	This view looks westerly towards the traffic signal at Trim Road. The traffic signal design for a protected left turn at this intersection is not MTO standard. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view along Old Highway 17 just east of the Trim Road intersection. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view at the end of the divided highway east of Trim Road. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	This view looks westerly along Old Highway 17 at the beginning of the divided highway through Orléans. Beyond the intersection at Trim Road, Highway 17 (via its successor Highway 417) is a full freeway for nearly 85km westerly through to Arnprior (as of 2011). Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view as Highway 17 encroaches the Ottawa River (Rivière des Outaouais) a few hundred metres east of Trim Road in Cumberland. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	This view looks westerly along Highway 17 between Orléans and Cumberland. The Ottawa River was an early colonization route for settlers arriving to Canada. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
City of Ottawa	Easterly view as Highway 17 parallels the south shore of the Ottawa River as the highway approaches Cumberland. Photo taken: July 24th, 2011.	(720x480) (1440x960) (2400x1600)
