Private roads are not paid for by the town. They are paved, plowed and maintained by the owners of the road. We have a house on a private road. We would like it to be taken over by the town, but they don't want the expense of maintaining it.
There is a lot of wear and tear on the road, especially when driven on during the winter or mud season. All that wear and tear is paid for by private owners.
If you want to drive on a private road ask the town to accept it and maintain it.
