The contrast is striking on this stretch of road which runs along the Somme, here transformed into a canal. In 2018 it was a grassy path. Today this comfortable macadam has replaced the jolts of the track.

There are several of these bridges - unfortunately I didn't see any of them in action.

Here, the canals are being cleared of vegetation. However, there's still a lot of work to be done. There are sections of the canal where there's a lot of vegetation.

Beautiful almost car-free bike ride largely back and forth along the canalized Somme with numerous "marais" swampy lakes and locks. About 40 km from Peronne, but mobile phone battery went flat.
