State Highway 17 (SH 17) was the designation for a 32-kilometre stretch of highway in northern Auckland in the North Island of New Zealand from December 1999 to October 2012, now designated as Urban Route 31. It consists of the Hibiscus Coast Highway, Dairy Flat Highway and Albany Expressway, and links State Highway 1 at Puhoi in the north with SH 1 at Albany in the south. Its main destinations are (from north to south) the towns of Waiwera, Orewa, Red Beach, Whangaparaoa, Silverdale, Dairy Flat and the suburb of Albany. Prior to its inception as SH 17, the road was part of SH 1, and was redesignated as SH 17 in 1999 when the Northern Motorway was extended northwards and took over the designation of SH 1.
