History
Route 117 was created in 1965 from parts of the former Routes 12 (between Nelson and Chatham) and 37 (between Chatham and Bay du Vin).
The Chatham bypass and Miramichi Bridge were completed in 1997, creating a high-speed controlled-access connector between Newcastle and Chatham in the City of Miramichi.
