I have also seen \"ring expressway\". This would appear to be the way the term is often translated in China.
There are many examples, eg:

Or \"orbital motorway\". For example, the M25 orbital motorway around London (often known as the London Orbital).
It really depends on the norm of the country to which your text refers.
