The term "urban area" as used herein means an area including
and adjacent to a municipality or other urban place having a popu-
lation of five thousand or more, as determined by the latest available
Federal census, within boundaries to be fixed by the State Roads
Commission.

(e) [(h-2)] The State Roads Commission, with the approval of
the municipality or urban area as the case may be, and with the
consent of the Governor and under the provisions of Section 8 of
Article 15A may, in any fiscal year, transfer from the Construction
Fund prescribed in this section to a "Municipality-Urban Area
Highway Construction Fund," which is hereby established, a sum
equal to such amount of Federal-Aid Urban Highway Funds that
may become available from the Bureau of Public Roads and that
may be allocated by the State Roads Commission to the several
municipalities and urban areas and that may subsequently be re-
leased by such municipalities and urban areas to the State Roads
Commission for use on the State Highway System. Such Municipal-
ity-Urban Area Highway Construction Fund shall be subject to
apportionment by the State Roads Commission and matching con-
struction funds shall be required of each such municipality and ur-
ban area participating in such program. Such Municipality-Urban
Area Construction Fund and such matching funds shall be ex-
pended only for highway construction and reconstruction projects
under such rules and regulations as the Commission shall determine.
