Slaves did not want anything for the leaders of the Roman Republic. They could not demand or expect anything. They had no rights. They were someone's property. They were just purchased assets. The most they could hope for was manumission (emancipation). Roman masters often manumitted their slaves.
A specific inventor of Roman roads is unknown, however archaeology has shown that the Roman road was developed over many hundreds of years form the beginning of the Empire to its final collapse and demise in around 700ad. This design was so good that even today there are sections of preserved Roman road which can be used for transport and many modern routes follow the original routes of the Roman roads.
Manumission was the act of freeing of slaves by slave owners.

It all depends on what was intended to be purchased. The grocery shopping was done by the slaves. The cook and his assistants would spread out to the various fora to make the family's food purchases. If it was a household prchase, or gift, either the husband or wife would go out. The Roman shopping was very much like today's shopping in terms of who did what.

Roman slaves were mainly transported in open wooden based wagons. Slaves that were gladiators, however, did have the pleasure of riding on horseback at times. For forced labor workers, walking was the only way for them to get where they were supposed to go. They would, of course, be tied up or shackled to prevent escape.
With the exception of working in mineral extraction Roman slaves probably had it better. A Roman slave could earn his freedom or advance himself which was not the case with plantation slaves in the deep south.
