From Voyennes to Saint-Simon

Between Voyennes and Péronne, the North Canal uses the Somme and creates a break between the upstream and downstream sections of the Somme Canal. Unfortunately, due to lack of maintenance, the upstream Somme Canal has been closed to navigation since 2004, between the locks at Offoy (PK12.5) and Saint Simon (PK0).
