I10 is the major east–west Interstate
Highway (IH) in the Southern United States. In Texas, it
runs east from Anthony, at the border with New Mexico,
through San Antonio and Houston to the border with
Louisiana in Orange, Texas. |

At just under 879 miles, the stretch
of i10 crossing Texas, maintained by the
Texas Department of Transportation, is the longest
continuous untolled freeway under a single authority in
North America, a title formerly held by Ontario's
Highway 401. Mile marker 880 (and the corresponding exit
number) near Orange are the highest numbered mile marker
and exit on the Interstate Highway System (IHS) or, for
that matter, on any freeway in North America. |

Texas alone contains more than a
third of the interstate's entire length. El Paso, near
the Texas-New Mexico border, is 785 miles from the
western terminus of i10 in Santa Monica, California,
making it closer to Los Angeles than it is to Orange,
Texas, 857 miles away. Likewise, Orange, on the
Texas–Louisiana border, is only 789 miles from the
eastern terminus of i10 in Jacksonville, Florida. |
