For the purposes of this section, the word "project" shall, in relation to the project described in said paragraph (j), include approach highways thereto and bus facilities for the transportation of passengers through or over said project if the Board shall deem it advisable to construct such approach highways or acquire such bus facilities; and the term "cost of the project" shall, in relation to the projects described in said paragraphs (b) and (j), include an amount sufficient to reimburse the Board for expenditures or advances theretofore made by the Board on account of the cost of either or both of said projects, and shall, in relation to the project described in said paragraph (j), include provision of a sum, deemed by the Board to be sufficient for the purpose, to be utilized by the Board for the payment of employment severance benefits to employees of the Board or the Department rendering services in connection with the projects mentioned in paragraphs (g) and (i) of subdivision (2) of said § 33.1-268 and shall include the cost of constructing approach highways and of providing bus facilities if the Board shall deem it expedient to construct such approach highways or acquire such facilities as a part of the project described in said paragraph (j). In the event bonds shall be issued for the combined purpose set forth in clause (b) of this section, such amount of the proceeds of such bonds as may be required, together with other funds available for such purpose, for the redemption of the outstanding bonds to be refunded shall be deposited by the Board in trust with the trustee under the trust indenture securing such outstanding bonds for the sole and exclusive purpose of paying and redeeming such bonds, and the balance of such proceeds shall be used solely for the payment of the cost of the project or projects to be constructed.
