On the mainland, Highway 17 is 14 km (8.7 mi) in length. Beginning at the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal, Highway 17 proceeds northeast on a 3 km (1.9 mi) long shallow-bank causeway as 4 lane undivided arterial. 3 km (1.9 mi) northeast after making landfall as a 3-lane highway, Highway 17 reaches the intersection with 52nd Street in Tsawwassen, then 56th Street. Highway 17 then turns due north as a 4-lane expressway standard highway and reaches an interchange to Deltaport Way, 34B Avenue, and then a junction with Ladner Trunk Road at Ladner, 6 km (3.7 mi) after 56th Street. 2 km (1.24 mi), Highway 17 finally terminates at the on-ramp to Highway 99. It terminates onto River Road, a secondary connector from South Delta to North Delta which passes Wyman Tilbury.
