Interstate 17
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Interstate 17 (abbreviated I-17) is an intrastate interstate highway located entirely within the state of Arizona, United States. It goes from Phoenix, Arizona at Interstate 10 to Flagstaff, Arizona at Interstate 40. The southern part of the highway was built along Arizona State Highway 69, while the northern part was built along Arizona State Highway 79. Interstate 17 is one of the more scenic interstate highways as it gains more than a mile in altitude between Phoenix (1,117 feet) and Flagstaff (7,000 feet). The highway has several scenic view exits along its route that overlook the mountains and valleys of the northern part of the state.

Notes
- I-17 has the unusual distinction of starting at milepost 194 instead of at zero. This is due to a holdover from Arizona's old system of marking mileposts. I-17 inherited the mileage from AZ 69 which it replaced, and the original mileage for that highway began at the intersection with US 89 at milepost 201. When I-17 was constructed, the original mileage for AZ 69 was kept, starting back a few miles since the new freeway began a few miles before the old highway.
- I-17 is referenced in Batman Begins during the chase scene with the Batmobile.
