2. Such branch or connecting road or roads shall deflect from the main road at such convenient point as the board of chosen freeholders shall determine; and shall be laid out, opened and improved on such courses and lines to, through or into the territory of such city, town, borough, township or other municipality, as the said board shall determine by resolution, and such courses and lines may include any street, road or avenue already laid out or dedicated to public use, or may be over any lands which may be acquired either by gift, purchase or condemnation, or any or either of said means; provided, that no portion of any street or avenue occupied or used for the purposes of a street railroad shall be appropriated for said road or roads, except so far as it may, in the judgment of such board, be necessary and advisable, in order to secure the joint use of any county bridge or bridges over navigable waters already constructed, thus avoiding the necessity of erecting a new bridge or bridges.
