Route description
History
From 1922 to 1926, US 24 east of Carrollton was marked as Route 10. Until improvements to US 69 were carried through in the 1960s, Route 10 traveled along the current Route H through Prathersville and Mosby into Liberty. In Liberty, Route 10 followed Liberty Drive along Glenaire into Pleasant Valley, where it followed the current US 69 west to North Brighton Avenue. At North Brighton, it turned south and onto Winn Road, crossing what is now Interstate 35 (I-35). It follows sections of road that no longer exist to connect to Winn Road, traveling south and into Avondale as Walker Road. There are signs in Avondale to this day marking it as "Highway 10". It then followed the current route of Route 210 and Armour Road into North Kansas City, turning southward at Burlington Road/Route 9 and crossing the Missouri River terminating at US 24/US 40 in downtown Kansas City.
