State Route 170 (SR 170) is a short, 3.68-mile (5.92 km) long state highway located within Grant County in the U.S. state of Washington. The highway begins at SR 17 west of Warden and travels east to end at Main Avenue in Warden. The current route of the highway was first established in 1967 as Secondary State Highway 11I (SSH 11I) and became SR 170 in 1970 after it was moved north of its previous route, which had been on maps since 1926, named SSH 11A in 1937 and renumbered to SR 170 in 1964. The old route ran from the Columbia River southwest of Basin City to SR 17 north of Mesa.
