There is the 6 bus along bridge...which is a reasonable way to get to DTK, but pretty...umm...local.
The 5 to uptown and the 202 and 12 are also a reasonable walk away, but again, no sidewalks (except possibly to the south for the 5, not sure if it will connect, or how easy that is).
Even for the 6 however, you still would have to cross bridge street, with no crossing, over a blind hill.
Edit: taking a closer look at streetview, pretty certain there will be a sidewalk to the south. So 6 and 5, not bad actually, but there should be a god damn sidewalk!
Based on the Region of Waterloo's 2019 Budget, reconstruction of Bridge St. from University to Woolwich is scheduled for 2020. It will include sidewalk infill on the east side of the street (where this development is located), and bike lanes.
