Douai Climate

Douai experiences its hottest temperatures in July and August. These are also the months that bring the highest amount of precipitation. However, there are actually fewer rainy days during the summer than there are days with precipitation during the late fall months.

Getting There & Around

There are no airports in Douai, but there is one in the nearby city of Lille. Reach the city overland by travelling north from Lille on the A26 for 150 km. Be prepared to pay tolls, as there are multiple junctures where toll money will be requested.

The Bus Rapid Transit, also known as Le Tram in the city, not only serves the area but also takes passengers into the city of Eindhoven. This unique bus system has its own dedicated lane and is operated with electronic guidance. Since it has no barriers to travel, it is faster than other bus systems.
