The Canal de la Deûle is one of the oldest canals in northern France, connecting the River Scarpe at Douai with the River Lys at Deûlémont, near the Belgian border. The canal is approximately 34.8 km long and has 3 locks. Most of the canal is incorporated into the Dunkerque-Escaut high-performance waterway, with the remaining section through the port of Lille often considered a branch of the main route, hence the alternative names Liaison or Antenne Bauvin-Lys.
