State Route 10 Loop (SR 10 Loop, also known as Loop 10, Paul Broun, Sr. Parkway, or the Athens Perimeter) is a 19.1-mile-long (30.7 km) state highway in the form of a beltway around much of Athens in the U.S. state of Georgia built to freeway standards. Much of the road is concurrent with other routes (including U.S. Route 29, US 78, US 129, US 441, SR 8, and SR 15) that travel through the Athens – Clarke County metropolitan area. It also carries the unsigned SR 422. Only US 78 Bus., SR 10, and SR 15 Alt. travel through downtown Athens. Inner/outer directions are used to sign the loop.
Between exits 4 and 8, there is an eight-highway concurrency, consisting of US 29/US 78/US 129/US 441/SR 8/SR 10 Loop/SR 15/SR 422 (counting the unsigned SR 422). This concurrency ties the American record of most highways in a single concurrency. The record holder is Interstate 74 (I-74), I-465, US 31, US 36, US 40, US 52, Indiana State Road 37 (SR 37), and SR 67 in the Indianapolis, Indiana metropolitan area.
