The Hiroshima Expressway (広島自動車道, Hiroshima Jidōsha-dō) is a national expressway in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. It is owned and operated by West Nippon Expressway Company.

The expressway is officially referred to as the Chūgoku-Ōdan Expressway Hiroshima Hamada Route. The Chūgoku-Ōdan Expressway Hiroshima Hamada Route is the official designation for the Sanyō Expressway between Hiroshima Interchange and Hiroshima Junction, the Hiroshima Expressway between Hiroshima Junction and Hiroshima-kita Junction, the Chūgoku Expressway between Hiroshima-kita Junction and Chiyoda Junction, and the Hamada Expressway between Chiyoda Junction and Hamada Interchange (concurrent with the Chūgoku-Ōdan Expressway Hiroshima Hamada Route).

The expressway is a short connector route linking Chūgoku Expressway with the Sanyō Expressway.

Although the route officially originates at Hiroshima Junction, the southern terminus and terminates at Hiroshima-kita Junction, the northern terminus, exit numbers and kilometer markings originate from Hiroshima-kita Junction.
