The old Kuala Lumpur-Kuantan federal road Federal Route 2 runs through downtown Maran. Federal Route 64 connects Maran to Jerantut. Connection to Pekan, the royal capital of Pahang is also possible through a series of state-level roads and then Federal Route 82.

Maran in turn is divided into three state seats in the Pahang State Legislative Assembly:
- Chenor
- Kuala Sentul
- Luit
in which all three are also currently held by UMNO. Another state constituency, Jengka, is under the administration of the Maran District Council but is represented under Kuala Krau parliamentary constituency.
