Ohio State Route 533 (SR 533) was a short two-lane northsouth state highway in west central Ohio. Existing entirely within Jefferson Township, Logan County, and to the northeast of the county seat of Bellefontaine, SR 533 ran a distance of 1.8 miles (2.9 km) miles between SR 540 and SR 47 near the campus of Benjamin Logan Local School District. The entire route was turned over by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) to Logan County jurisdiction by 2014.

Route description

SR 533 commenced at an intersection approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) east of Bellefontaine where the western and southern legs are formed by SR 540. Following the route of County Road 5 northerly through the farmlands of Logan County's Jefferson Township, SR 533 had one intersection, Jefferson Township Road 127, en route to its endpoint at its junction with SR 47 at a T-intersection near the Benjamin Logan Local School District campus.[2]

History

SR 533 was designated in 1937 along the routing that it occupied until 2014.[3][4] The entire road was asphalt-paved by 1940.[5][6] In the winter of 2014, ODOT and the Logan County Engineer arranged a swap of roads within Logan County. All of SR 533 became an extension of Logan County Road 5 while County Roads 144 and 144A in the southeastern part of the county became state-maintained as an extension of SR 347.[7] Signs designating the extended county road and its status as Old SR 533 have been posted on the former state route.[7][8][9]

Major intersections

The entire route was in Jefferson Township, Logan County.
