Expressway S17 or Express Road S17 (in Polish Droga ekspresowa S17) is an important road in Poland which, when completed, will run from Warsaw, through Lublin, to the border crossing with Ukraine at Hrebenne/Rava-Ruska. Its route runs parallel to National road 17 (DK 17) which it will replace. As of November 2014, 90 km (56 mi) out of a planned 310 km (190 mi) have been completed. These are three separate sections forming the bypasses of Garwolin, Lublin and Hrebenne. The busier portion of the road between Warsaw and Lublin was to be finished by 2015, but with subsequent reductions in government spending on infrastructure the completion was delayed. It was put to tender September, 2013 and contractors are still being selected for a design-build project, with construction starting about 2016. The road southeast of Lublin has lower traffic density and is not likely to be completed before 2020, except for short sections serving as city bypasses. A document outlining the future development of transport infrastructure issued by the Polish government in August, 2014 projects that the road will be fully completed in 2021.
