Interstate 610 (abbreviated I-610) is an alternate route of I-10 that lies entirely within the boundaries of Orleans Parish, Louisiana.

The western terminus is at the Orleans Parish / Jefferson Parish line, and the eastern terminus is in the community of Gentilly immediately west of where I-10 crosses the Industrial Canal that links the Mississippi River with Lake Pontchartrain. The total length of the bypass is approximately 5 miles.

While I-10 continues into the Central Business District of New Orleans, I-610 provides a shorter route, by several miles, for through traffic.
