Route

The EO33 is officially defined as a northwest–southeast road within the Arcadia and Elis regional units: the EO33 runs between Patras to the northwest and Levidi to the southeast, passing through Tripotama.[4]

The EO33 connects with the EO8 and EO9 in Patras, and the EO74 near Vlacherna.

History

Ministerial Decision G25871 of 9 July 1963 created the EO33 from the old EO56, which existed by royal decree from 1955 until 1963, and followed the same route as the current EO33.[4][5] The EO33 follows most of the historic EO111, which existed from 1928 to 1955: however, the EO111 deviated from the EO33 between Pangrataika Kalyvia [el] and Tripotama, going via Kleitoria and Aroania, instead of Paos.[6]
