D533 was a state road that connected the city of Šibenik and A1 motorway in Šibenik interchange to D33 state road.[1] The part of the road between Šibenik and A1 motorway was opened on June 26, 2005 while the part between A1 motorway and D33 state road was opened in 2007.[2] The road was abolished and merged with D33 in 2012.[3] The road was 8.0 km long.[4]

All D533 road junctions except for its northern terminus (north of A1) were grade separated. The D533 was executed as a single-carriageway, two-lane expressway with a speed limit of 80 km/h (50 mph).

The road, as well as all other state roads in Croatia, was managed and maintained by Hrvatske ceste, state owned company.[5]

Traffic volume

Traffic is regularly counted and reported by Hrvatske ceste, operator of the road.[6] Substantial variations between annual (AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road serves as a connection of the city of Šibenik and several tourist resorts to the Croatian motorway network.
