The 2017 Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council election took place on Thursday 4 May 2017 to elect the 33 members of Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council in Wales. This was on the same day as other 2017 United Kingdom local elections. The Council shifted back from Labour to Independent control.

Ward results

Cyfarthfa

The vote in the Cyfarthfa ward was delayed until 8 June because of the death of independent candidate, Ieuan Harris, during the campaign. The results gave the Independent group enough seats to have an overall majority on the council. The current mayor, Margaret Davies, who'd won her seat at a November 2012 by-election, lost her seat.
