The Eglinton East LRT (EELRT), also known as Line 7 Eglinton East[2]: 24  and formerly known as the Scarborough Malvern LRT, is a proposed light rail line in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The line would be entirely within the district of Scarborough.[3] 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. As of 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.[4] As of November 2023, the estimated cost of the EELRT was $4.65 billion, with construction expected to occur between 2027 and 2034.[5]
