- August 18, 1997 - The earliest known routing of route 17 traveled from Westridge Mall (now Desert Sky Mall), down 75th Ave, along McDowell Rd to Granite Reef Rd. Every other trip went up 51st Ave to Camelback Rd instead of to the mall and did not travel all the way to Granite Reef Rd, instead looping around 52nd St, Van Buren St, and 48th St, ending at 48th St & Fillmore St
- October 13, 2003 - The 51st Avenue branch was replaced by route 51
- July 23, 2012 - 52nd St turnaround loop eliminated
- January 27, 2014 - Western end extended along McDowell Rd to Pebble Creek Pkwy to replace route 17A and eastern end turnaround loop eliminated
- October 27, 2014 - Eastern end extended to McDowell Rd & Pima Rd and deviation to Desert Sky Mall eliminated
