Narrative:
I was cleared to taxi to runway 33. Due to construction activities on the normal taxiway, I was cleared to taxiway G to runway 7 to runway 33. I believed I was cleared all the way to the east side across runway 33 and then double back on taxiway J for a standard full length departure. The controller informed me after I crossed runway 33 that he had not cleared me across runway 33. I believe the confusion over the taxiway closure and inattentiveness of the control tower led to this confusion. In the future, the controller could assist by stating, 'hold short, runway 33.'

Title: C337 PLT CROSSED RWY DURING TAXI OUT BELIEVING HE WAS CLRED TO DO SO SINCE HE HAD NOT BEEN INSTRUCTED TO HOLD SHORT.
Narrative: I WAS CLRED TO TAXI TO RWY 33. DUE TO CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES ON THE NORMAL TXWY, I WAS CLRED TO TXWY G TO RWY 7 TO RWY 33. I BELIEVED I WAS CLRED ALL THE WAY TO THE E SIDE ACROSS RWY 33 AND THEN DOUBLE BACK ON TXWY J FOR A STANDARD FULL LENGTH DEP. THE CTLR INFORMED ME AFTER I CROSSED RWY 33 THAT HE HAD NOT CLRED ME ACROSS RWY 33. I BELIEVE THE CONFUSION OVER THE TXWY CLOSURE AND INATTENTIVENESS OF THE CTL TWR LED TO THIS CONFUSION. IN THE FUTURE, THE CTLR COULD ASSIST BY STATING, 'HOLD SHORT, RWY 33.'
