An easy solution is to just not build roads for new developments. If a private interest wants to establish a new development they should pay for it all. The market will magically include all the costs in the final product (buildings/homes) and no one will be out a dime involuntarily. Things will cost what they actually cost. Some would counter that this isn’t how economic development works. Arguments would be things like businesses need incentives or the city is responsible for common infrastructure. The problem is that roads just become a form of corporate welfare. If a enterprise or business doesn’t want to fully invest in its new location, IMHO, it is not worth it and you need to face the fact that your town just isn’t ready for it yet.
