Halfords reveals stronger-than-expected profits – driven by cost-cutting measures and pricing strategies
HALFORDS has revealed stronger-than-expected profits for the past year, driven by cost-cutting measures and pricing strategies. The motoring and cycling retailer 's underlying pre-tax profits rose by 6.4 per cent to £38.4million for the year to March 28. This was higher than its earlier forecast of £32million to £37million. New boss Henry Birch hailed the results as evidence of a strong performance and progress in the company's growth strategy. Halfords faced £33million in extra costs last year because of inflation and higher wages. However, the company managed to offset this by saving £35million. At the same time, it said its profitability improved thanks to better buying operations and higher pricing. Looking ahead, Halfords plans to deal with rising costs, including higher National Insurance and minimum wages, by adjusting prices, buying smarter and cutting more costs. Meanwhile, total revenues rose 0.1 per cent to £1.72billion for the year, with like-for-like growth of 2.5 per cent. 2 The firm's autocentres business saw like-for-like growth of 3.7 per cent, while retail sales were up 2.1 per cent. Mr Birch said: 'The business has delivered a strong financial performance, made good strategic progress and has a clear plan in place to tackle external inflationary forces.' I-DIAL FOR BEST NETWORK MILLIONS of phone owners can use a new 'map your mobile' coverage checker to find their best network. The service, launched by regulator Ofcom, shows the options on a local map based on the user's postcode. Car washes could be causing your motor's paint to fade as expert shares DIY fix using £xx Halford's product It can also specifically lists which is the best network for workplaces, commutes, or communities. Ofcom's Natalie Black said the tool is based on modern smartphone needs. It sets a higher standard for signal strength and is very precise, focusing on smaller areas within a 50-metre radius. TAX TOLL RISES AROUND 4.4 million households are in council tax arrears — owing a record £8.3billion, figures reveal. The number in the red is up from 3.2 million last year while the total owed has soared 79 per cent in five years, according to research by charity Debt Justice. It said: 'The vast majority aren't avoiding council tax, they simply can't afford it. Rather than help, councils sending in bailiffs.' £1M BOX FINES 2 THOUSANDS of drivers were fined a total of nearly £1million from 36 box junctions last year — after councils across England gained the power to enforce penalties. The RAC said 32,748 fines were issued, with Manchester City Council giving out the most, generating £446,706 from six junctions. Kent's Medway Council raised £145,162 and Buckinghamshire £139,798. One, in Guildford, Surrey, netted £81,445.

Drivers fined £1MILLION last year for one type of road traffic offence after councils were given new powers to extend the war on motorists
Motorists last year were fined almost £1million for one type of road traffic offence that's only been enforced outside of London and Cardiff for the last three years under new rules to extend the war on drivers. A staggering £998,640 of penalty charge notices (PCNs) were issued to drivers in 2024 for one specific infringement. Local authorities hit them with penalty charges for breaching rules at just 36 different yellow box junctions across England. It comes after the Government in May 2022 allowed councils to apply for the right to enforce this type of moving traffic offence, essentially giving power to local authorities to treat motorists like cash cows. It includes taking over enforcement powers from police for a number of different moving traffic violations, such as ignoring no entry signs and driving in designated cycle lanes. The RAC, which obtained the statistics through Freedom of Information requests, said the 'enormously high number' of PCNs should 'send alarm bells ringing in council offices'. Below is a list of the local authorities issuing the most yellow box junction fines. Click the links to see where these box junctions are located. Yellow boxes are used in an attempt to ensure traffic flows smoothly through busy junctions. Motorists should not enter them unless their exit is clear or they are waiting to turn right. London and Cardiff were the only parts of the UK where drivers could be fined for yellow box offences until the Government introduced new legislation in 2022, which enables all councils across England to apply for enforcement powers. Data provided by English councils in response to FoI requests by the motoring organisation showed that just 36 yellow boxes outside London and Cardiff were enforced last year. However, these locations triggered 32,748 PCNs. Penalty charges for these types of infringements are generally £70, reduced to £35 if paid within 21 days. Kent's Medway Council raised the second highest amount at £145,162 after handing out 4,433 PCNs for the five yellow boxes it enforced. Pictured: Yellow box at Rainham Road, junctions with Ash Tree Lane and Canterbury Street, Gillingham The RAC analysis found Manchester City Council issued the most box junction-related PCNs, with 13,130 for six box junctions across its network. This brought in £446,706 which was nearly half of all yellow box-related revenue outside London and Cardiff. Kent's Medway Council raised the second highest amount at £145,162 after handing out 4,433 PCNs for the five yellow boxes it enforced. It was followed by Buckinghamshire Council, which received £139,798 for 3,618 fines. But the single junction that generated the largest revenue was at Dennis Roundabout in Guildford, Surrey, which cost drivers £81,445 as 4,250 PCNs were issued. At the other end of the scale, Gloucestershire County Council issued just 30 yellow box PCNs, raising £945, while Leeds City Council handed out 50 fines, resulting in £605 being paid. Only a fraction of yellow box fines are appealed by drivers, but the proportion of attempts that are successful can be as high as 87 per cent in the case of Medway Council. RAC senior policy officer Rod Dennis said a yellow box which generates a small number of fines indicates it is 'working as it should', which must be the ambition for councils rather than using them as a 'revenue-raising opportunity'. He went on: 'Very few people set out to deliberately flout the rules and get fined. 'The large number of penalties being dished out over a small number of locations and in a short space of time should send alarm bells ringing in council offices. 'It's vital box junctions are used in the correct places and are only as big as absolutely necessary. 'They must be fairly set up so that drivers don't find themselves stranded through no fault of their own.' The Government in May 2022 allowed councils to apply for the right to enforce this type of moving traffic offence, essentially giving power to local authorities to treat motorists like cash cows RAC senior policy officer Rod Dennis said a yellow box should not be seen as a 'revenue-raising opportunity' for councils Chartered engineer Sam Wright was commissioned by the RAC to analyse the 100 boxes across London and Cardiff which were responsible for generating the most fines in 2019. A report published last year showed he found 98 were larger than necessary for their role in preventing queuing vehicles blocking the path of crossing traffic. The average box was 50 per cent bigger than needed, according to the research. The Local Government Association, Manchester City Council, Medway Council and Buckinghamshire Council have been approached for comment.

Warning on ‘enormously high number' of fines issued to drivers over yellow box rule
Motorists across England were hit with nearly £1 million in fines from just 36 yellow box junctions last year, following the introduction of new enforcement powers for councils. The staggering sum, revealed by the RAC through Freedom of Information requests, has prompted the motoring organisation to warn that the "enormously high number" of penalty charge notices (PCNs) should "send alarm bells ringing in council offices". Yellow box junctions are designed to keep traffic flowing smoothly through busy intersections. Drivers are prohibited from entering these marked areas unless their exit is clear, or they are waiting to turn right. Historically, only London and Cardiff councils held the authority to fine drivers for yellow box offences. However, new legislation introduced by the government in May 2022 expanded these powers, allowing all councils across England to apply for enforcement capabilities. The data specifically highlights the impact of these new powers, detailing fines issued from 36 junctions outside the capital and Cardiff. This led to a total of 32,748 PCNs issued, with drivers paying £998,640. PCNs are generally £70, reduced to £35 if paid within 21 days. The RAC analysis found Manchester City Council issued the most PCNs, with 13,130 in relation to six junctions. This brought in £446,706 which was nearly half of all yellow box-related revenue outside London and Cardiff. Kent 's Medway Council raised the second highest amount at £145,162 after handing out 4,433 PCNs for the five yellow boxes it enforced. It was followed by Buckinghamshire Council, which received £139,798 for 3,618 fines. But the single junction that generated the largest revenue was at Dennis Roundabout in Guildford, Surrey, which cost drivers £81,445 as 4,250 PCNs were issued.

The average box was 50 per cent bigger than needed, according to the research. Alex Paterson, Medway Council's portfolio holder for community safety, highways and enforcement, said its enforcement of yellow boxes is 'not about catching people out', adding that road markings were updated so 'nobody could reasonably claim not to have seen them'. Buckinghamshire Council deputy leader Thomas Broom said the area suffers from 'a lot of congestion' and the amount of yellow box fines issued 'directly relates to the number of people who commit these traffic offences'. A spokesperson for the Local Government Association said: 'All councils follow guidance to ensure motorists are treated fairly. 'There are processes for appeal if anyone believes they have been unfairly fined.'
