Water utilities may be a private concession or a public utility. Either way, funding is local and normally by a separate bill based on usage.

OK, water utilities are another parallel.
 My water bill is split into a certain fixed amount (paying for infrastructure, I assume) and a certain amount per cubic foot of usage.
 The current system for road fees has far, far too low a cost per mile on "usage."
 That "usage" part is usually done only by the "gas tax" which hasn't been raised for a long time. Federal gas tax is about half of what it was in the early '90s, in constant dollars.
 

In your opinion.
Others might say they are doing somewhat less of what they are not doing well.
