Highway 10 (VI 10) is a road on St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Usually referred to as Center Line Road by locals, as it runs through the center of the island, Highway 10 runs from Highway 20 in Cruz Bay across St. John, entering Virgin Islands National Park along the way. Route 10 has three auxiliary routes, Highway 104, Highway 107, and Highway 108.

Route description

The route begins at U.S. Virgin Islands Highway 20 in Cruz Bay. From there, it enter several suburbs and enters Virgin Islands National Park, where the surrounding land is green grass. The route then meets U.S. Virgin Islands Highway 104 along Centerline Road and exits the park. Nearing Coral Harbor, it skims a small shoreline community before reentering the park, ending at a dead end near Round Bay.

The road runs almost five miles (making it the longest auxiliary route on the island) from Highway 10 to the southern shores of St. John. Highway 107 serves several towns along the shores of Coral Bay. The paved road ends (and thus loses its number) just inside Virgin Islands National Park; an unpaved road[5] continues about a mile before ending at a trailhead.
