(2) The board of county commissioners of any county is authorized to contract with the transportation commission or with any city or town within the county, or with both the transportation commission and a city or town, for the construction or maintenance, or both, of county or state highways within the county or within the county and the city or town. Adjoining counties may also contract with each other for construction or maintenance, or both, of public highways where roads in one county may be constructed or maintained, or both, more economically by an adjoining county.
