US 17

US 17 is North Carolina's Coastal Highway.  Running from Virginia and the Dismal Swamp to South Carolina and the entrance to the Grand Strand, US 17 parallels the Atlantic for its entire journey through our state.  Over time, US 17 has been upgraded from a sleep two lane road to a four lane highway with numerous bypasses.  There are numerous bannered versions of US 17 and in some cases there are four different versions of US 17 in one city.

Truck Business US 17 Ends: Elizabeth City

One of the oddest highway designation's within the state -- and possibly within the country -- is Truck Business US 17 in Elizabeth City.  Truck Business US 17 runs entirely on US 158 and serves as a Truck Bypass of downtown Elizabeth City.
