"Via a lat/lon" is a less precise way to express it, not more.
Remember that a point has zero size, and a city is not a point.

The best you can do is to check if the route crosses a polygon, and to
do that you'd just need to write a loop that checks each vertex of the
polyline of the route against the polygon.
If the polygon can be defined as a rectangle, then things are a lot
easier than if it is irregular.
