The first stage of the Light Railway Order for the southern end of the line came into effect on 28 February. The British Railways Board (Severn Valley) Light Railway Order 1973 granted BR the power (to be transferred to the SVR) to operate as a Light Railway from the existing boundary at Alveley to a point 247 yards east of the [[Stourport Road Bridge]]. Power was also granted to operate over the [[Stourport Branch]] from Bewdley to a point 302 yards south of the southern portal of [[Mount Pleasant Tunnel]], this section having been purchased by the SVR for an additional £100.<ref>[[Bibliography#Books | Marshall (1989), p184]]</ref>
