  • (a) The Agency may relinquish to the town in which it is located any portion of the State
    highway system located on land acquired or to be acquired by the United States or
    any agency of the United States as contemplated by section 1901 of this title. (b) When the entire section of an existing State highway, which is replaced or to be replaced
    as contemplated by section 1901 of this title, is not in fact ultimately acquired by the United States, and so much of the section
    as is not so acquired is, in the judgment of the Board, no longer needed as a part

    the Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways shall
    not be considered as a replacement for existing State highways. (Added 1985, No. 269 (Adj. Sess.), § 1; amended 1989, No. 246 (Adj. Sess.), § 20; 2021, No. 105 (Adj. Sess.), § 367, eff. July 1, 2022.)
