§ 516. Relocation

A municipal corporation affected by a relocation as above provided may appear and be heard at any proceedings in connection with the relocation. If, after the hearing, the court determines that the relocation of a highway is necessary for the convenience of individuals or of the state, the court shall by its order determine under what conditions the agency of transportation shall relinquish control to the town of that portion of the state highway system affected by the relocation. When the agency of transportation has complied with the conditions, it shall certify and record this information in the clerk's office of the town in which the highway lies and thereafter the maintenance and control of the portions of the highway relinquished shall be vested in the town where located.
