The Francis Bowes Sayre Sr. Highway or simply the Sayre Highway is a four-lane, 192-kilometre (119 mi), primary national highway that connects Cagayan de Oro, Misamis Oriental^[1] to Kabacan, North Cotabato.^[2] It traverses the provinces of Misamis Oriental, Bukidnon^[3]^[4]^[5] and North Cotabato.^[6]

The highway's name was Route 3 but was changed to Sayre Highway, in honor of Francis Bowes Sayre, Sr., the U.S. Philippine High Commissioner who spearheaded its construction.^[7] It extends southward through central Mindanao for a distance of about 161 kilometers (100 mi), linking the northern and southern arms of Route 1 (Digos–Butuan Highway). This section of the Philippine national highway was constructed during the American occupation of the Philippines.

The parts of the highway are composed of National Route 10 (N10), a spur route of Asian Highway 26 in the north; and National Route 943 (N943) in the southern portion of the Philippine highway network.
