State Route 710 (SR 710) is a 4.06-mile-long (6.53 km) state highway in the central portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Existing entirely within the northern portion of the city of Columbus, SR 710 begins at an intersection with SR 161, less than one-quarter mile (0.40 km) west of exit 117 off Interstate 71 (I-71). The highway ends at a seven-ramp partial cloverleaf interchange with I-270 at its exit 27.

SR 710 was established in 1969. Although signed as an east–west route, the overall path of this route is that of an irregularly shaped inverted "U", with its westernmost and easternmost portions following north–south roadways.
