The Commonwealth Transportation Commissioner of Virginia is hereby authorized and empowered, subject to the approval of the Commonwealth Transportation Board, upon request of the governing bodies of incorporated towns of less than 3,500 inhabitants, according to the last United States census, to select certain streets and roads in such towns for maintenance, improvement, construction and reconstruction from allocations available from secondary funds not to exceed 2 miles of streets or roads in such incorporated towns included in the secondary system of highways, whether such 2 miles of streets or roads constitute connecting links between roads in the secondary system in the several counties, or between roads in the secondary system and roads in the primary system, of the state highways or not.

The said Commissioner is hereby authorized and empowered, with the approval of the Commonwealth Transportation Board, in addition to the said two miles to increase the mileage of streets and roads in such incorporated towns annually, not to exceed, however, in any one year one-fourth mile, exclusive of any mileage transferred from the primary system under the provisions of § 33.1-35, or any mileage maintained by the Department of Transportation prior to its annexation by such incorporated town.
