Gwadar East Bay Expressway (Urdu: مشرقی خلیج بزرگرہ, Balochi: دیمی زر بزرگرہ) is a municipal expressway in Gwadar, Balochistan, Pakistan.[1] The six lane expressway was inaugurated by Prime Minister of Pakistan Mian Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif on 3 June 2022. It connects Gwadar Port to the Makran Coastal Highway. The Gwadar Port Authority is supervising the project.[2][3]

The project is developed as part of the "Early Harvest" scheme of China Pakistan Economic Corridor, and is part of a wider Rs. 170.667 billion (US$590 million) development package for the city and Port of Gwadar.[4]

The cost of the project is approximately Rs. 14.7 billion (US$51 million), and will be financed by interest-free loans extended by China's state owned banks.[5] Pakistan will be required only to repay the principal value of the loan. As a condition for receiving a zero-interest rate loan, bidding for the project was limited to Chinese state-owned companies, and the contract was awarded on a government-to-government basis.[6]
