Eyewitnesses reported the air ambulance landing at the scene shortly after 5pm.
A spokesperson for Yorkshire Ambulance Service said: “We received an emergency call at 5.20pm yesterday (Tuesday 4 March) to report a quad bike in collision with a barrier near Bentley Pit Top in Doncaster.
"Two ambulances, a team leader and the air ambulance were dispatched to the scene.
