The M10 road is a road in Zambia. It goes from Livingstone, through Sesheke and Senanga, to Mongu.[1][2] The road is approximately 508 kilometres[1][2] and follows the Zambezi River for its entire length.

The M10 between Livingstone and Kazungula (where there is a narrow border to Botswana) and extending further west to Sesheke (where there is a border to Namibia's Caprivi Strip) is a major route used by motorists for international trade and travelling between Zambian cities and the respective countries of Botswana, Namibia and South Africa.[3] The road is one lane in each direction. As a result, the road may be very busy and may have high volumes of traffic in either direction.

The M10 between Livingstone and Sesheke (Katima Mulilo) is part of the Walvis Bay-Ndola-Lubumbashi Development Road.[3]
