Yokohama is located near Tokyo and has improved transportation facilities.
In this case, are the following sentences acceptable?

Tokyo is within easy access of Yokohama.
Yokohama has easy access to Tokyo.
People in Yokohama can go to Tokyo easily.

Are there any better expressions?

Thank you in advance.

They are all OK. I like #1. Also, Tokyo is easily reached from Yokohama (unless it is a weekday morning).
