End of historic US highway 17-1 |
 |
1926-1932
- North: Petersburg, VA
- South: Wilmington, NC
US 17-1 was among the original routes of 1926. Claim to fame: US 17-1 was the only major US highway that was ever assigned a hyphenated route number. I suspect its strange number was intended to convey the fact that it ran between US 17 in Wilmington and US 1 at Petersburg (photos and more info on those pages).
