Is there any historical evidence that Cnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus who was proconsul in Gallia Narbonensis from 122 to 119 B.C. made the route that passes the Alps at Montgeneve into a via Romana? What is known is that he constructed the Via Domitia from Agnae Sextiae (Aix) to Summun Pyrenaeum (le Perthus) with Forum Domitii (Montbazin) at its midpoint 111 mille passus from each end. This was built to extend connect Marseille with Spain and connected with the existing road that stretched from near Nice to Marseille through Aix and had its midpoint at Forum Voconi (le Cannet-des-Maures) 72 mille passus from each end. The first Roman road connecting Italy to the province would appear to be the one Caesar constructed from Nemausus (Narbonne) to Genua with Forum Juli (Frejus) at its midpoint. There is no evidence that the route over Montgenèvre became a Roman road before the time of Augustus.

A good source for information about the Roman roads is

Hannibal

Hannibal traversed it on his way from Hispania to Italy.

Does that mean that he followed it, or crossed it? —Tamfang (talk) 03:17, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
