U.S. Highway 10 (US 10) is a majordivided highway for almost all of its length in the U.S. state ofMinnesota. The route runs through the central portion of the state, following generally the alignment of the formerNorthern Pacific Railway (nowBNSF Railway) and connects the cities ofMoorhead,Detroit Lakes,Wadena,Little Falls,St. Cloud,Anoka,Saint Paul, andCottage Grove. US 10 within Minnesota is 275 miles (443 km) in length.
US 10 enters the state fromNorth Dakota and heads throughMoorhead parallel toInterstate 94 (I-94) andUS 52 until it exits the city. US 10 then takes a more northerly route than I-94/US 52 toSt. Cloud by heading throughDetroit Lakes,Wadena, andLittle Falls. From St. Cloud toMounds View, US 10 is a busy route through the suburbs of St. Cloud andMinneapolis.

East of Mounds View, US 10 is marked mostly along Interstate Highways untilSaint Paul, where the routeruns concurrently withUS 61 toCottage Grove. US 10 then heads east to theWisconsin state line and exits the state.
US 10 is a divided highway along most of its length through the state, with posted 65-mile-per-hour (105 km/h) speed limits along much of the way, except for two-lane or undivided four-lane stretches through Wadena andMotley. There are some 60-mile-per-hour (97 km/h) posted speed limits in the four-lane section betweenElk River andAnoka and the two-lane section betweenBluffton andWadena.
Legally, the Minnesota section of US 10 is defined as unmarkedConstitutional / Legislative Routes 2, 37, 27, 3, 62, and 94 in the Minnesota Statutes §§ 161.114(2) and 161.115(25).[3][4] US 10 is not marked with these legislative numbers along the actual highway.
Intercity bus service is provided byJefferson Lines along the northwestern portion of the US 10 corridor from the North Dakota state line to Staples.[5]
US 10 was established on November 11, 1926.[2] Originally, the route split between Moorhead andSt. Cloud into US 10N and US 10S. In 1934, US 10S was replaced byUS 52 (nowI-94) and US 10N became simply US 10.[6]
US 10 in Minnesota was paved between St. Cloud andMinneapolis–Saint Paul as early as 1929. The remainder of the route was paved by 1950.[6]
The four-lanedivided highway section between the cities ofElk River andAnoka was constructed by 1942.[6]
Thefreeway section of US 10 between the city of Anoka and University Avenue (at theCoon Rapids–Blaine boundary line) was completed in the early 1970s. The new freeway section of US 10 between University Avenue andI-35W inMounds View was completed in 1999.[6]
From 1934 to 1999, US 10 was located on a different alignment between Coon Rapids,Spring Lake Park, and Mounds View. This is now known asCounty Road 10.[7]
WhenI-694 andI-35E were completed in the late 1960s, US 10 was then signed concurrently with these highways east of Mounds View to the city of Saint Paul.[6]
As of 2017, US 10 in Minneapolis–Saint Paul has been built to a freeway standard from Anoka toHastings (save for three signalized intersections at Burns Avenue, Warner Road, and Lower Afton Road).
