“Who is supposed to build the roads?”
Private entities. Financial incentive is enough to sort out payments.
I _might_ be swayed to making roads a gov’t responsibility, since culture so absolutely depends on them.
Anecdote:
Every night I go for a walk in a suburban subdivision. Of late I’ve been puzzling over why the local gov’t is tasked with owning & maintaining these roads, cul-de-sacs in particular, when practically the only cars on them belong solely to those living on adjacent lots. Main roads, yeah, maybe those should be “public” - but 200 yards of asphalt existing solely for the benefit of a dozen people should be their problem, not “ours”. I’m increasingly of the opinion the locals should buy the roads outright (seeing as we’re under an HOA anyway), put up a gate, and only allow access to residents & guests.
There may be legal or financial reasons why the town wants to control the streets in a private development. It gives them the authority to set design standards and maintain easements for public utilities, for example.
Yabut STOP SIGNS are oppression to me.
