I don't really understand, how can the bus be so much worse? I assume it's on the same lanes as the cars? Is it that busses are forced to drive significantly slower than cars, or are you including the time to+from the bus station perhaps?

The bus must stop at other stops, wait at an interchange for passengers, then drive in the same lanes as cars (though there are limited lanes on some major roads)

There are no dedicated lanes on the route in my example, though it also is an express bus which doesn't stop at the interchange between where I live and the town centre. Also it is speed limited slower than the rest of traffic on the main road of the route
