State Route 833 (SR 833) is a 5.10-mile (8.21 km) long east–west state highway in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Its western terminus is at the West Virginia state line in Pomeroy, where it provides a connection to West Virginia Route 62 (WV 62) via the Pomeroy-Mason Bridge across the Ohio River. Its eastern terminus is at an interchange with U.S. Route 33, SR 7, and SR 124 approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Pomeroy.

Established in 2003, SR 833 follows the former alignment of US 33, which was given a new, more direct route into West Virginia through Ravenswood, West Virginia and on Interstate 77 (I-77) in West Virginia. The West Virginia portion of decertified U.S. Route 33 was replaced by extending WV 62 to Ripley, West Virginia.

It's a really fun thing to think about doing. It's an even more fun thing to do. My name is Christy Miller and I'm a student vehicle operator for Campus Area Bus Service. I've been working here for about 3 years. This is one of the highest-paying jobs you can get on campus. You only have to work the days you want to work. And you're always able to pick up more shifts if you need more money. I'm Michael Falco and I'm a student vehicle operator. I have been working for CABS for four years now. I got the job because I was looking for a position on campus working for Ohio State that was flexible with hours and flexible with my academic schedule. They trained me to get my commercial drivers license, and then I started driving on campus. So working at CABS is a lot different from working in an office. You're driving your desk instead of sitting at it. I've met some of my best friends in the whole world working here. I just love being able to come to a place where I feel so comfortable. And it's just a great place to work.

When US 33 was re-routed through Meigs County in 2003 along SR 7, then easterly onto a new alignment onto the Ravenswood Bridge across the Ohio River into Ravenswood, West Virginia and a more direct connection with I-77, the former routing of US 33, running from the connection with WV 62 at the Pomeroy-Mason Bridge, through Pomeroy, and concurrently with SR 124 to the US 33/SR 7 interchange north of Pomeroy was given the designation of SR 833.^{[citation needed]}
