ALL racing at a Herefordshire kart track has been cancelled today after a water main burst.

A spokesperson for the Herefordshire Raceway Kart Circuit, based in Weobley, said today (August 23) that all championship racing would be cancelled due to the lack of water, with no toilets working on the site.

"Unfortunately, due to a local burst pipe, we currently have no mains water today," the announcement said.



"This means we don't have working toilets, so we have made the tough decision to cancel all racing today - we will be in touch ASAP about a possible new date."

According to Welsh Water, a fault has now been located in the Weobley area, and works to restore supply are estimated to be completed by 2pm today.

Until it is fixed, residents may experience either low pressure or have no water.
