The Via Agrippa roads are named after him.

A Via Agrippa is any portion of the Roman road system in Gaul built by Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, who was charged by Octavian with the task of reorganizing the Gauls. In Gaul, Romans built 21,000 kilometers of roads (13,000 mi). By constructing 21,000 kilometers of roads in the former Gaul, Agrippa helped cities become more Romanized. The Via Agrippa had four routes: the Atlantic, the North Sea, the Rhine, and the final route, which went to Marseille.


Though much was erased as contemporary roads and buildings were constructed, traces of the Via Agrippa continue to be followed by some modern roads. A foremost example is Route Nationala 7 that follows the ancient tracks of the Via Agrippa. There are also 22 milestones, which indicate the distance from the starting point, that continue to stand until today. They are said to be constructed from the third to the fourth century; with one being reused in the choir of the Cathedral of Valence.
