Worth noticing
The source dataset reports that 94.1% of road length connects into one network, treating endpoints within 100 metres as meeting.

Field notes

The map uses the Itiner-e atlas for a snapshot of the network around AD 150 and links to its data sources and licences. Visitors can search by town or Roman place, inspect individual segments, and toggle modern roads beneath them. The page says most routes are conjectural; its Certain category is described as tracing routes to roughly 50 metres in mountains and 200 metres on plains.
