Guthrie Corridor Expressway, GCE, E35, is an expressway in Klang Valley, Selangor, Malaysia. It connects Shah Alam to Rawang. GCE is approximately 25 km (16 mi) (23 km (14.2 miles) long on the Prolintas sections and 2 km (1.2 mi) on the PLUS Expressway sections). The expressway is unique in Malaysia in that all project costs, including land acquisition, were borne by the concessionaire alone. Of the land acquired, 80 percent was from plantation company Guthrie Berhad which in 2007 merged with two other companies to form Sime Darby. Today this expressway is owned by Prolintas and its subsidiary Prolintas Expressway Sdn Bhd. The Kilometre Zero is located at Jalan Monfort intersection near Shah Alam.

History

The proposal to build the expressway began in 2002 while Guthrie Berhad had become a major owner of this project after plantations and property. The construction started in 2003. The expressway was built along an oil palm estate that was owned by Guthrie Berhad too. The expressway was completed in April 2005 and commenced operations in July 2005.

In August 2007, GCE has become a subsidiary of Prolintas Expressway Sdn Bhd (PEX).
