Musson is not served by any highways. The closest highway entrance is exit 3 of the A28/[E411](/source/European_route_E411) in neighbouring [Aubange](/source/Aubange). There is one major national road that passes Musson proper. This is the N88 from the [Luxembourg](/source/Luxembourg) border in [Athus](/source/Athus) to [Virton](/source/Virton) and [Florenville](/source/Florenville). Furthermore, the N82 crosses the municipality shortly, for about 800m, in the northwest, but does not serve any population centers. All N-roads are maintained by the [Walloon](/source/Wallonia) government.
