So he's right: It's just as fast to walk than take the bus. It's because the only direct routes take you to Graham and Hargrave, and the only way of getting right to Broadway/Donald is with a transfer.
There is one direct route, the 99, which does the trip in 8 minutes (Stradbrook/Nassau to Smith/Broadway), but it doesn't run very often. I guess Broadway is a surprisingly bad place to live if you want to use transit. Far cry from the days when it had a streetcar line in its median.
