Ownership is not relevant if you think in terms of fixmystreet..
Just two extreme examples.
- The Italian Motorway network is owned by the Italian via a
state-majority public company, and operated by several different private or
state-owned companies that to all effects own specific parts of the
network. They take the road toll and do all the maintenance.
- I lived for a couple of years in city (in the US) The street was
property of the city, the drainage system was theirs, but I had to clean
the street in front of the house up to the middle from the leaves falling
from the trees that the city had planted. If the drainage does not work,
who is the operator or owner?
