The agreement shall provide that the right-of-way and improvements continue to be used as a road, street or highway and that the municipality be chargeable with the repair, maintenance and upkeep of the right-of-way and improvements. The municipality may exercise its police powers over the right-of-way and improvements in like manner as if the right-of-way and improvements lay entirely within the municipality.
