What this is

Every stop, one page

GoRaleigh tells you where the bus goes. Transit and Moovit tell you when it'll arrive. Neither tells you what's within walking distance of each stop. If you ride Route 33 for groceries, a doctor's appointment, a prescription, or an evening shift, that gap matters more than the schedule.

This page closes that gap. Every stop below lists what's a 1 to 10 minute walk away, plus how late the last bus runs so you can plan the trip home.

Every stop

Listed from west (New Hope Commons in east Raleigh) to east (Upward Dr near the Knightdale and Wendell line). Every physical stop serves both directions of travel. Walk times are from the stop to the door, shortest first. Stops with nothing listed yet fill in as riders suggest places.

Plan the trip home

Don't miss the last bus

Last bus is roughly 22:59

Service runs Daily (Monday through Sunday), with the first eastbound trip around 05:45 and the last trip leaving the western terminus around 22:59. Weekend and evening service is sparser. Always verify the trip at goraleigh.org/maps-schedules before relying on a late bus.

Behind the data

How this works

Where the data comes from

Stop locations and the official schedule come from GoRaleigh's public GTFS feed (updated 2026-03-13), the same data Transit and Moovit use. Nearby places were drafted from public sources (Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, business websites) and walk times measured along the sidewalk from the stop. Hours and openings change, so confirm by phone before a trip that depends on one.

Common questions

Route 33 FAQ

Is GoRaleigh Route 33 the same as the old KRX (Knightdale-Raleigh Express)?

Effectively yes. The former KRX has been reconfigured as GoRaleigh Route 33L Knightdale. Today it operates as a local east-west route between east Raleigh (New Hope Commons) and Knightdale, rather than a downtown Raleigh express. To reach downtown Raleigh, transfer to other GoRaleigh routes at New Hope Commons.

How often does Route 33 run?

Approximately every 30 to 60 minutes during the day, with gaps widening in the evening and on weekends. Check the official GoRaleigh schedule for current trip times. GoRaleigh also publishes data to the Transit app and Moovit.

How is this different from Google Maps or Moovit?

Google Maps shows you businesses but doesn't care which ones you can actually walk to from a bus stop. Moovit and Transit show schedules but not destinations. This portal answers the question those tools skip: once I step off the bus at this stop, what can I actually do on foot? Every nearby entry includes a real walking time from the stop.
