No, those ways are generally always underwater (I'm talking about a region
with a humid tropical climate). Not accessible by car though, only by
motorbike and by foot - as the water level on marshes and swamps don't
change a lot even after heavy rains, those ways are permanently used.

Here are example photos of what I'm talking about -
