    The Espierres Canal lies in Belgium between the French border and the Scheldt through the provinces of Hainaut and West Flanders. Its French extension is called Roubaix Canal. It was reopened in 2011 for river traffic.

      The Canal de l'Espierres is a canal that was originally built to connect the Deûle with the Scheldt. The purpose of this canal was to supply Lille-Roubaix-Tourcoing with water and coal. The canal was built between 1840 and 1843 and has a length of approximately 8.4 kilometers. The canal runs through the provinces of Hainaut and West Flanders and is classified as Walloon heritage.
