>I think economically speaking delivery trucks and local supermarkets should take most of the burden. Currently car owners disproportionately pay for roads that those without cars enjoy. They pay for roads (in their own fuel tax, purchase tax on automobile, and often in registration fees) that allow heavy delivery trucks to bring food and medicine and various goods to local shops and addresses where the car-less can access them. This all despite a car wears remarkably less on a road than the semis that truck in these goods so the car-less (and others) can access them locally. If anything, pedestrians and bike riders underpay for a road system they take advantage of. In fact one can ride a bicycle and be a near complete free-rider to the road system, if your income is low enough, despite still availing yourself of benefits such as trucked in food/medicine/goods.
