A major road border crossing on Poland's National Road DK68 into Belarus is located at the village. Kazłovičy is located across the border. This crossing is an alternative to the Terespol-Brest crossing further south. Kukuryki is expected to be the eastern terminus of the planned extension of Poland's A2 motorway, which will connect with the Belarusian M 1 motorway across the border in Kazłovičy, north of Brest.
