Highway museum complex is Sri Lanka's first highway museum. Located in Kiribathkumbura, Kandy, it is maintained by the Road Development Authority.
The museum has a collection of former construction equipment such as stone road rollers, steam road rollers, oil road rollers, tar boilers, coal scales, road signs and a model of the Bogoda Wooden Bridge.[2] Some of the equipment on display is reportedly over 175 years old.
