traffic

Street

Two Polish state roads (droga krajowa, DK) and voivodeship roads (droga wojewódzka, DW) run through the area of the urban and rural municipality Chojna, three of which run through the city of Chojna and one runs through the northern part of the municipality:

DK 26 : Krajnik Dolny (Nieder Kränig) / Germany ↔ Trzcińsko-Zdrój (Bad Schönfließ) - Myślibórz (Soldin) - Renice (Rehnitz) (between Nieder Kränig and Königsberg it uses a section of the former German Reichsstrasse 166 )
DK 31 : Stettin - Gryfino (Greifenhagen) - Widuchowa (Fiddichow) ↔ Mieszkowice (Bärwalde) - Kostrzyn nad Odrą (Küstrin) - Słubice (Frankfurt (Oder) -Dammvorstadt)
DW 122 : Krajnik Dolny (Nieder Kränig) / Germany ↔ Banie (Bahn) - Pyrzyce (Pyritz) - Piasecznik (Petznick)

rail

The Polish State Railroad (PKP) No. 273 runs through the municipality in a north-south direction and runs from Stettin via Küstrin to the Silesian Wroclaw. Gmina Chojna has three train stations on this route: Chojna, Lisie Pole (Uchtdorf) and Godków (Jädickendorf).

In Godków there was previously a connection to the Wriezen - Jädickendorf railway , which led from Berlin via Werneuchen and Wriezen to here and continued on the Jädickendorf - Pyritz ( Pyrzyce ) railway . In some cases, sections of these routes were operated until the 1990s. Today the rail traffic stops here, which means that the municipalities of Gellen (Jelenin) and Blankenfelde (Brwice) no longer have a rail link.
