For roads specifically, if a corporation causes increased usage of roads from say, more employees, the employees already pay for it through their personal income taxes (off of salary). If it's a trucking company, then there are weigh stations that weigh these commercial users and charge them extra for road maintenance.

This is a real problem...perhaps one of the biggest problems we face, and I really don't have any reasonable ideas on how to fix it.
