Private road association

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A private road association is an organization, typically nonprofit, specializing in private roads.

[edit] Sweden

Two-thirds of the Swedish road system is run by these organizations, which range in size from a few households to tens of thousands of households. Dues to the associations are assessed based on a legal survey of property size and road use. For instance, a business that puts many heavy trucks on the road would be assessed accordingly. Private roads associations that allow public use of their roads and meet certain other criteria can receive subsidies from the federal government.^[1]
