This camera watches the A16 motorway at the Dunkirk interchange 57, close to the village of Cappelle-la-Grande in northern France.

About the area
Cappelle-la-Grande lies in the flat coastal plain of French Flanders, a few kilometres inland from the North Sea and close to the port city of Dunkirk. The landscape is dominated by open fields, dykes and drainage canals, with the wind often shaping the scenery. The A16 is one of the main routes linking Dunkirk with Calais, Belgium and the wider European motorway network, which makes this junction a busy point on the map.
What you can watch
As a traffic camera, the view is aimed at the road and its slip roads rather than at scenery, so the main interest is vehicle flow, congestion and how quickly traffic moves. Weekday mornings and late afternoons usually bring the heaviest commuter traffic, while holiday weekends and the start of summer often show longer queues heading to the coast. Weather such as fog or heavy rain can also change how the road looks, so it is worth checking the local conditions shown on this page.
Practical information
The area has a mild maritime climate, with cool, wet winters and fairly mild summers, and strong westerly winds are common throughout the year. Anyone planning a drive through the junction should allow extra time at peak hours. Nearby cameras on the A16 at Bierne, Loon-Plage and Ghyvelde let you follow the route toward the Belgian border and the Calais side of the motorway.
