The Tokyo Expressway (東京高速道路, Tōkyō Kōsoku Dōro), also known as the KK Route, is a mostly closed 2.0-kilometer-long (1.2 mi) untolled expressway in central Tokyo owned and maintained by the Tokyo Expressway Company (Tōkyō Kōsoku Dōro K.K.). It is signed as D8. It previously ran in a semicircular loop around the Ginza district of Chūō-ku, but now only exists as stub between the Inner Circular Route of the Shuto Expressway and Tokyo Metropolitan Route 316. The majority of the expressway was closed to vehicular traffic in April 2025 to be converted into an elevated park owned by the Tokyo Expressway Company known as the Tokyo Sky Park.
