Passengers wishing to alight at Country Park Halt should inform the train guard before departure. Those wishing to join a train at Country Park Halt should signal the driver of the approaching train by holding out an extended arm, allowing sufficient time for the train to stop.

Not being original to the line the construction of the halt took place in the 1990s and was sponsored by Bridgnorth district council to serve the Severn Valley Country Park. It opened on 4 April 1996 and features a brick built shelter. The halt is built on the site of the former Alveley Sidings.
