What's the deal with the #22 Clark? (midwest.social)

You'd think a street as busy as Clark is, the #22 would be a flagship bus line. But every time this week I've clocked out at rush hour, the nearest southbound bus is 20-30 minutes away. Legit faster to just walk to Metra and wait for it. Why does this particular bus suffer so much, when some nearby lines operate fairly well?

Lincoln bus was always a mess as well. I think part of it is likely that those north side diagonals are not very wide but very popular with many destinations so the buses have to do a lot of waiting for private vehicles.

Why does the bus, the larger of the vehicles, not simply eat the private vehicles?
