The Eglinton East LRT (EELRT), formerly known as the Scarborough Malvern LRT, is a proposed light rail line intended to be part of the Toronto subway system in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The line would be entirely within the district of Scarborough. It was originally part of Transit City, a 2007 plan to develop new light rail lines along several priority transit corridors in the city.

Unlike Line 5 Eglinton, which is a Metrolinx project, the EELRT is a City of Toronto project. In 2022, the plan was that the EELRT be designed and operated as a distinct service from Line 5 Eglinton; both would terminate at Kennedy station with no connecting track. In November 2023, the estimated cost of the EELRT was CA$4.65 billion, with construction expected to occur between 2027 and 2034 if the project were to be approved and funded.
