Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, all departments, instrumentalities, entities, agencies, public corporations, municipalities, and political subdivisions of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico are hereby authorized to assign and transfer to the Authority, upon the latter’s request and under reasonable terms and conditions, any property or interest thereon (including property already devoted to public use) that the Authority deems necessary or convenient to carry out its purposes. When in its judgment it is more convenient to achieve the purposes of this chapter, the Authority may transfer to the agencies, departments, instrumentalities, entities or political subdivisions, including the municipalities of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the necessary funds so that said government bodies may engage in the construction, operation, and maintenance of public transportation, rail transport, and maritime transport facilities that are or may be under the jurisdiction of the Authority, as well as acquire rights-of-way needed to achieve such purposes.
