County Route 533 (New Jersey)
County Route 533, abbreviated CR 533, is a county highway in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The highway extends 32.36 miles (52.08 km) from the White Horse Circle, in Hamilton Township to County Route 527 in Bound Brook. Route 533 shares a major concurrency with U.S. Route 206 through Princeton Township, while portions of the roadway in Somerset County are part of the Millstone River Valley Scenic Byway.
Along with Route 206, CR 533 is one of the main roads connecting Mercer and Somerset, as evidenced by the fact the two cross the county line together.
It also has a key historic importance, as George Washington used the road during his march from Trenton to Princeton during the American Revolution. This is commemorated by several small stone pillars at various points along the road.
