Tour de France 2015, Arras & Somme

Recommended Posts

If anyone is planning a visit to Arras or the Somme on 8th July, then you might well encounter some traffic problems. The 5th stage of the Tour de France will be starting from Arras. The route is then Rancourt, Peronne, Longueval, Pozieres, Thiepval, Albert, and Villers-Bretonneux, finishing at Amiens.

I agree. We got caught last week when there was a cycle event from Arras to Paris. All cars shifted from the Grand Place, and that was only a small event. Arras is definitely worth a visit, but if I went again I think I would find a b&b, gite, or hotel away from the city centre. Parking is difficult and the one way system complicated if you drive. :-)
