A. The Commonwealth Transportation Board may transfer such roads, bridges and streets as the Board shall deem proper from the secondary system of state highways to the primary system of state highways; upon such transfer the roads, bridges and streets so transferred shall become for all purposes parts of the primary system of state highways and thereafter cease being parts of the secondary system of state highways. The Board shall transfer the Fairfax County Parkway (Virginia Route 7100) to the primary system of state highways, and may add such other roads, bridges and streets as it shall deem proper to the primary system. The total mileage of such roads, bridges and streets so transferred or added by the Board shall not, however, exceed 50 miles during any one year.

Upon such transfer, the roads, bridges, and streets so transferred shall become, for all purposes, parts of the primary system of state highways and thereafter cease being parts of the secondary system of state highways.
