Techiman is connected by road to Sunyani and its airport. The town is not yet serviced by a railway station, and it has been proposed that a line be extended there. The Tano River is a navigable river.
A study of traffic in the town in March 2007 found a breakdown of 34% for taxis, 31% for pedestrians, 10% for buses and vans, 7% for bicycles, 6% for motorbikes, 5% for cars and 7% for "other" modes of transportation. Of bicyclists, a focus of the study, 49% traveled for work, 18% for school, 14% for recreation and 6% for touring.

Famous quotes containing the word transport:
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
