Plans in gear for speedway track

Cornwall has been without a speedway track since 2003

A planning application has been submitted for a speedway track in Cornwall.

Cornwall has been denied speedway since Trelawny Tigers had to leave their Clay Country Moto Parc home in 2003.

But now a site is being considered on land at the rear of Bodmin Rugby Club, at the junction of the A30 and A38.

Some local people have raised concerns about noise but those behind the plans, understood to be local businessmen, said it was the best site available.

A decision is expected by North Cornwall District Council towards the end of the year.

Three years ago a plan for a track at St Eval was refused because of objections about noise.
