Title 75 - VEHICLES
Chapter 92 - Transfer of State Highways
9207 - Restoration of highways.

     § 9207.  Restoration of highways.
        (a)  General rule.--The department and the affected
     municipality shall jointly determine whether any rehabilitative
     work is required to put the highway or road in a satisfactory
     condition. The rehabilitative work may be done by department or
     municipal forces, or by contract, as the parties shall agree. If
     the work is to be performed by the department or its
     contractors, the highway or road transfer shall not be effective
     until all agreed upon rehabilitative work has been completed.
        (b)  Funding.--All restoration work shall be paid from the
     State Highway Transfer Restoration Restricted Account within the
     Motor License Fund, provided, however, that the department may
     in its discretion pay for any or all such work to be performed
     by the department or its contractors from funds made available
     to the county maintenance districts under section 9102 (relating
     to distribution of State highway maintenance funds). No funds
     shall be allocated to municipalities for the maintenance of
     highways transferred under this chapter out of section 4 of the
     act of June 1, 1956 (1955 P.L.1944, No.655), referred to as the
     Liquid Fuels Tax Municipal Allocation Law, nor shall highways
     transferred under the provisions of this chapter be used to
     compute or determine the allocations of municipalities under
     that section.
        (c)  Public liability.--Upon transfer of any highway, the
     municipality shall assume the same public liability for the
     transferred highway as it assumes for other highways under
     municipal jurisdiction.
     (Dec. 21, 1998, P.L.1126, No.151, eff. imd.)

        1998 Amendment.  Act 151 amended subsec. (b).
