Route 10 is a highway in the western portion of the U.S. state of Missouri. Its eastern terminus is at the duplex of U.S. Route 65 and U.S. Route 24 in Carrollton; its western terminus is at U.S. Route 69 in Excelsior Springs. A business loop of Route 10 goes through Richmond.
From 1922 to 1926, US 24 east of Carrolton was marked as Route 10. Until improvements to US 69 were carried through in the 1960s, Route 10 ran along the current Route H through Prathersville and Mosby into Liberty. In Liberty, Route 10 followed Liberty Drive along Glenaire into Pleasant Valley, where it followed the current U.S. Route 69 west to N. Brighton Ave. At N. Brighton, it turned south and onto Winn Rd., crossing what is now Interstate 35. It follows sections of road that no longer exist to connect to Winn Rd, traveling south and into Avondale, MO as Walker Road. There are signs in Avondale to this day marking it as Highway 10. It then followed the current route of Route 210 and Armour Road into North Kansas City, turning southward at Burlington Road/Route 9 and crossing the Missouri River terminating at US 24/US 40 in downtown Kansas City, MO.
