Highway 10, colloquially known as International Coastal Road, is a primary road that runs through the northern region of the governorates of Matrouh, Alexandria and Port Said in Egypt connected to the Libyan border.[1] It runs along the coast of Mediterranean Sea and through the beach city New Damietta. It has made road traffic and transportation easier and faster between the ports of New Damietta and Alexandria.
The road was officially opened in 2002 by President Husni Mubarak.[2]
