Highway 317 is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It runs from Highway 7 near Marengo to Highway 31 near Primate. It is about 94 kilometres (58 mi).[1]
Hwy 317 begins in the Rural Municipality of Milton No. 292 at a junction with Hwy 7 just to the south of the village of Marengo, heading north along Range Road 3275 to cross a railway and travel through the eastern side of town. Leaving Marengo on gravel, it traverses a series of switchbacks to enter the Rural Municipality of Antelope Park No. 322 and immediately travels along the eastern side of Hoosier to have a junction with Hwy 772. Heading northwest, the highway regains pavement for a short distance as it travels through Fusilier, where it shares a short concurrency (overlap) with Hwy 51 and crosses a former railway line. Turning back to gravel, Hwy 317 enters the Rural Municipality of Heart's Hill No. 352 and winds its way northwest past several small lakes, including Plover Lake (where it regains pavement again), to have intersections with Hwy 680, Hwy 771, and pass through the hamlet of Cactus Lake, where it crosses a former railway line and travels just to the east of the lake of the same name. Entering the Rural Municipality of Eye Hill No. 382, the highway travels through rural farmland, passing just to the west of Grosswerder before coming to an end at an intersection with Hwy 31 just east of Primate.[2]
