Old Route 17 is the original alignment of NY 17 prior to the construction of the Quickway (NY 17/Future I-86). The portion in Sullivan County goes through several different county route designations. The section in the Town of Liberty, which is known as Harris Road and designated CR 175, changes designation to become CR 174 at the Liberty-Thompson town line. CR 174 runs south to an interchange with the Quickway (NY 17/Future I-86) at exit 104 in Monticello, where it becomes NY 17B.
