The Butterworth–Seberang Jaya Toll Road, Federal Route 4 is a 5-km non-expressway-standard toll road in Penang, Malaysia. It connects Butterworth city centre to Seberang Jaya, a township at the eastern outskirt of Butterworth. This toll road is maintained by Lingkaran Butterworth (Penang) Sdn. Bhd. as a part of the Butterworth Outer Ring Road E17 project.

Many maps have mistakenly labelled this toll highway as a part of the neighbouring Butterworth–Kulim Expressway E15; however, it is incorrect as this highway is not maintained by PLUS Malaysia Berhad but rather by the operator of the Butterworth Outer Ring Road.
