State Route 33 was a primary state highway in the U.S. state of Virginia. It was first formed as part of the initial system in 1918; it was State Route 3 until 1923. SR 33 existed until 1933, when it was deemed redundant to the U.S. Routes that used it - U.S. Route 311 (now U.S. Route 220) from North Carolina to Roanoke, and U.S. Route 11 from Roanoke to West Virginia. The number was immediately reused for another route in southeastern Virginia, and in the late 1930s the current State Route 33, an extension of U.S. Route 33, was formed.
From Staunton to Winchester, SR 33 was the Valley Turnpike, taken over by the state in 1918. North of Winchester towards Martinsburg, West Virginia, SR 33 used the Winchester and Martinsburg Turnpike. Tolls were removed in 1919 when the turnpike company gave the road to the state.

- State Takes Over Winchester Pike. Special to The Washington Post Winchester, Va, February 12, 1919: "Stockholders of the Winchester and Martinsburg Turnpike Company have accepted a proposition made by State Highway Commissioner Coleman to transfer the nine miles of turnpike in Virginia to the State without cost. The commissioner has a right to continue the one toll gate until September 1, 1919, but it is planned to abolish it sooner. By that time it is stated, there will be no toll gates on any trunk line highway extending from Pennsylvania."
