  1. Yes, same road! Tiburtina is a big busy road that goes from the center to Tivoli and after Tivoli to Abruzzo (region9


  2. Substainsally they are the same road but divided into different sections.  via tiburtina is a state road called SS5 , via tiburtina valeria is a continus of the road, called SP51ab (province road);

    Via Tiburtina is an ancient road of Italy leading east-northeast from Rome to Tivoli (Latin, Tibur). It was built by the consul Marcus Valerius Maximus around 286 BC and later prolonged up to the territories of the Marsi and the Equi, in the Abruzzo, as Via Valeria: the total length was c. 200 km from Rome to the modern Pescara. Its exit through the Aurelian Wall was the Porta Tiburtina and, through the Servian Wall, the Porta Esquilina. A former state road with the same name exists today, following the same path.

    Historians assert that Via Tiburtina must have come into existence, as a track, at any rate, during the establishment of the Latin League. Though afterward it became an important thoroughfare, the first portion of Via Tiburtina always retained its original name Via Valeria, which applied only to the portion of the road beyond Tibur. There is, however, a difficulty in determining the last portion of the course of Via Tiburtina from the Albulae Aquae to Tibur.
