London Buses route 433 is a Transport for London contracted bus route in London, England. Running between Addington Interchange and Croydon it is operated by Abellio London.[1]

History[edit]

The route was created as a "Tram feeder" service with the opening of Tramlink in 2000. It was numbered T33.[2] In 2015, the route was renumbered 433 as part of wider changes that also saw the withdrawal of routes T31 and T32.[3]

In July 2018, service frequencies at all times were reduced.[4] On 2 November 2019, the route was changed to terminate on Katharine Street instead of calling at West Croydon bus station.[5]

In 2021, Abellio announced it intended to introduce electric buses on the route.[6]
