        Section 1.  Be it enacted, &c., That whenever viewers are
     appointed to vacate any public road, street, or highway in this
     Commonwealth, and the vacation of the same takes no land from
     the owner or owners of land abutting thereon, if, in the opinion
     of the viewers so appointed the vacation of said road, street,
     or highway damages the property of the abutting owner, they may
     award damages to such owner or owners as though land had been
     actually taken, and such damages shall be paid as is now

     opening, vacating, and laying out of roads, streets, and
     highways.
