Whenever a part of a parcel of land is to be taken for state highway purposes and the remainder is to be left in such shape or condition as to be of little value to its owner, or to give rise to claims or litigation concerning severance or other damage, the Department may acquire by condemnation or as otherwise provided by law the whole parcel and may sell the remainder or may exchange the same for other property needed for state highway purposes. The Department shall also have authority to acquire lands or interests therein to be used as passageways between tracts of land severed by limited access highways and to convey the same to the owners whose land is so severed.
