As for "well served", if speed is the issue I think an average of 20 km/h in the downtown core is pretty good. Slower in the west end is typical... the only things that would improve that is no street parking and/or less cars on the road.
The West End is brutally slow. <10km/hr is approaching walking speed. Consolidating bus stops would also help a bit. But I only see it really getting better once we get dedicated bus lanes (perhaps by removing all the street parking on Robson/Denman/Davie).
