Default Wembley Park engineering 22/23 May

(http://tube.tfl.gov.uk/content/press...405/18.asp#met)
Wembley Park and the tracks through it are closed for engineering on the
weekend of 22/23 May, so LU are bustituting between Harrow-on-the-Hill
and Willesden Green in the southbound direction, and Wembley Park and
Harrow in the northbound.

Does this mean that Met trains are stopping at Willesden Green - or are
all passengers expected to use the Jubilee? And how can bussing from
Wembley Park northbound help if trains aren't calling? :-)

They did say the tracks *through* Wembley Park - presumably this means
that trains will be reversing on the running lines at Wembley Park.

Either that or they screwed up, and the bus service runs between
Willesden Green and H-o-t-H in both directions.

Will the Jubilee Line be closed as well?

The LU notice says quite clearly that the Met line is running south from
Willesden Green. What I presume is happening is that Met line trains are
reversing N-S at Wembley Park , through the depot to pick up the SB track at
Neasden . However, because of problems parking busses at Neasden, they are
going on to Willesden Green where things are a lot easier.

For clarification

Due to the nature of the work taking place at Wembley Park which requires
the use of a crane moving over the tracks. Only Platform 1 at Wembley Park
(Met NB) can be used. In addition the platform adjacent to the Met track at
Neasden is not in a suitable condition for Met trains to stop. Therefore the
service patterns are

Jubilee Services will be to and from Neasden with a replacement bus service
to and from Stanmore
Met Services will be to Wembley Park Nortbound (where they will reverse via
Neasden depot) and re-enter passenger service at Willesden Green SB.
Replacement bus services will operate between Willesden Green and Harrow on
the Hill (two service will be provided - a non stop and an all stations).
Met train services at reduced frequencies will the operate to all north
branches with trains reversing at Harrow (capacity at Harrow is reduced).
Normal Chiltern Railways services will run between Harrow and Marylebone
