Virgin are alwys reluctant to install in private roads because they will need permissions/wayleaves from everyon affected and this is often difficult to obtain. It would really be for you to establish who owns every bit pf land between the cable box and your land. If this is a new development, say <10 years they won't want to be digging up the road.
They would need several applications from residents in the road to make it economic to proceed.
This is separate from any capacity limitations in their local network.

Check with Openreach when they will be upgrading their network to FTTP in your postcode.

You must be in a very remote location. Most built up areas will be connected sooner or later,
