There were three types of Roman roads:
1) The via munita was the stone-paved road, paved with rectangular blocks of local stone, or polygonal blocks of lava. It had a military purpose. It made the transport of military supplies to the camps at the front or to garrisons quicker and easier.
2) The via glareata was an earthed road with a gravelled surface.
3) The via terrena was a rural road of levelled earth.
The width of roads varied depending on the importance and/or the volume of traffic. Country roads were narrower. The famous Appian Way was 14 Roman feet wide (4.1 metres, 13 and a half ft.)
