Interstate 310 is a short spur route of Interstate 10 near New Orleans, Louisiana. It runs south from Interstate 10 near the New Orleans International Airport, intersects with US Highway 61 and ends at the junction with US Highway 90. It is 11.3 miles (18.2 km) long.

Interstate 310 crosses the Mississippi River via the Hale Boggs Memorial Bridge, a cable-stayed bridge connecting the towns of Luling and Destrehan. The bridge was completed in 1983, long before the rest of the freeway was built.

The final stretch of this highway, a two-mile bridge over environmentally sensitive wetlands between the US 61 interchange and the I-310 interchange, was completed on May 7, 1993.

Future plans for I-310 are to extend the southern end of the interstate to connect with the future extension of Interstate 49 from Lafayette to New Orleans.
