The Jingtong Expressway (Chinese: 京通快速路; pinyin: Jīngtōng Kuàisù Lù) is an expressway with express road characteristics in Beijing which links the central Chaoyang District to Tongzhou District. At present, it is approximately 18.6 km (11.6 mi) in length.

For most of the expressway, the Batong line of Beijing Subway, an extension of Line 1, sits near the centre of the expressway, linking central Beijing to Tuqiao on the Eastern 6th Ring Road, beyond central Tongzhou.

Some universities sit right next to the expressway, including the Communication University of China.
