The Ayer Itam–Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway Bypass is a dual carriageway under construction in the city of George Town within the Malaysian state of Penang.

The 6 km (3.7 mi) road will connect the inland neighbourhood of Farlim to the coastal Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway.

Slated for completion by 2025, the bypass is part of the Penang Transport Master Plan, which aims to alleviate traffic congestion in the state through the implemention of three new roadways.

[4] As the route traverses the hilly terrain between Farlim and Green Lane, three twin tunnels – measuring a total of nearly 2 km (1.2 mi) – would be bored into the hills to minimise environmental impacts.
