The city is located on the navigable [[Havel|River Havel]], a European Waterway, and vessels travelling through the city have a choice of two routes. The original route used the [[Brandenburg City Canal]], a {{convert|4|km|adj=on}} route through the city centre that descends through the ''Stadtschleuse Brandenburg'', but this route is constrained in size and now limited to leisure craft. Commercial traffic instead uses the [[Silo Canal]] that passes through the eastern and northern fringes of the city.<ref name=bsiwg93>{{cite book | first = Barry | last = Sheffield | publisher = Imray Laurie Norie & Wilson | location = [[St Ives, Cambridgeshire|St Ives]] | title = Inland Waterways of Germany | year = 1995 | pages = 93–100 | isbn = 0-85288-283-1 }}</ref>

The city is located at the junction of [[Bundesstraße 1|Federal Highways 1]] and 102 and the [[Bundesautobahn 2|A2 autobahn]] is nearby. The [[Berlin-Potsdam-Magdeburg Railway|Berlin and Magdeburg railway]] also runs through Brandenburg an der Havel.

The centrepiece of the city's urban public transport system is the [[Trams in Brandenburg an der Havel|Brandenburg an der Havel tramway network]].
