Once again - I am only familiar with the statutes in New York and Michigan. But - in New York and Michigan a town certainly CAN keep a road open without maintaining it. Legally it's called a "qualified abandonment." Once done, it preserves all rights for the public to keep on using the road - but the town no longer has to spend a penny on it - ever.
In your case? I don't even know who actually owns the property where the road is. Probably not the town - but maybe. Check the tax-maps. If someone else owns the property, you fenced it for years, they demanded you remove it, you refused - then things would be a bit different.
