Answer 1

As confirmed by @KiranChalla there is no simpler way then the one I've already implemented, except the minor suggestion to use GetSubRoutes()

var attributedRoutesData = request.GetRouteData().GetSubRoutes();
var subRouteData = attributedRoutesData.FirstOrDefault();

var actions = (ReflectedHttpActionDescriptor[])subRouteData.Route.DataTokens["actions"];
var controllerName = actions[0].ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName;
