Re arrange the country for convenience. Have everything set out around a grid-motorway structure so that all areas are within a 'motorway box'. Then allocate a set amount of population/resources/etc to each 'box'. Not the most feasible idea, I know, but it would help.

       Yes, this is the concept behind the US Interstate system.

       More or less impossible because this would require the relocation of millions of people from urban areas to the country.   

       Could be called 'ideal', but I think it would end up making everything look like a giant suburb. Which just makes me shudder...

       Re arrange the everything randomly, or is there some method to this madness?
