Washington Services has only one service going anywhere near it (25, Portobello) and the only access to the services area is through a hole in the fence on the Birtley side. Can't remember how accessible it is from the Washington side however no buses currently serve the road leading up to Crowther Industrial Estate (one works service might, but I'd have to check). 

Those limitations aside, Washington Sevices is quite difficult for a bus to serve; has limited facilities; and would only interchangeable with one mode of transport (the bus). Why anyone would want to change from a bus to another bus on a petrol station forecourt with extortionate prices for both petrol and groceries is beyond me.
