§ 33.1-216. Authority of cities and towns and certain counties in connection with federal aid
The cities and towns of this Commonwealth and also the several counties which have withdrawn from the provisions of Chapter 415 of the Acts of 1932, as amended, may comply fully with the provisions of the present or future federal-aid road acts and to this end they may enter into all contracts or agreements with the United States government or the appropriate agencies thereof relating to the survey, construction, improvement and maintenance of roads, streets and highways under their control and may do all other things necessary to carry out fully the cooperation contemplated and provided for by the present or future acts of Congress relating to the construction, improvement and maintenance of roads, streets and highways.
Such cities, towns or counties may also cooperate with the Board in connection with any project for the survey, construction, improvement or maintenance of any road, street or highway under their jurisdiction and control which is eligible for federal aid under any present or future federal-aid road acts, and may by appropriate agreement or contract authorize the Board to act on their behalf in any dealings necessary with the United States or any agency thereof and may authorize the Board to carry out such survey, construction, improvement or maintenance work on such projects either with or without participation therein by the city, town or county. Whenever the Board is given such authority by any such city, town or county, it may do all things contemplated and provided for by present or future federal-aid road acts and the agreements made with such city, town or county.
