## Key points

- Doncaster Moto Parc remains closed because of landfill smells.
- The Environment Agency is considering action after a missed deadline.
- Nearby residents and businesses report no improvement.

## Summary

Doncaster Moto Parc’s director says there has been no improvement in strong smells from a nearby landfill, keeping the motocross track closed. The Environment Agency is considering regulatory action after the operator missed a 10 November deadline for remedial work.

The track closed in October after riders, including children, reported headaches and dizziness and staff worried about their breathing. Director Ed Bradley says the business is losing income despite favourable conditions for racing; residents and nearby businesses also report no change. The Agency is assessing its options after Tetron Finningley Ltd challenged its report on the landfill’s waste management and soil site.
