Well travelled is something that has travelled a lot so certainly don't use that. Well served you could use in this case but only with the mention of public transport: This part of town is well served with public transport, it has major links to everywhere in the city. Commuter friendly is the best option to go with your sentence.

We usually say that a purpose or an objective is well served by some specific thing. As Dave says, you need to mention these factors.
Of course you might say that a tennis ball was well served, without any further explanation.

Thank you to both of you
To get something straight
well travelled is used to describe a road, so in my examples, you would use well served or well travelled or commuter friendly?

Of the three, I'd use the last, if you mean to say that it's easy to get around.
In some cases, you'd want to specify if you're talking about public or private transportation.
Some areas favor one, some favor both, some favor neither.
(By "private transportation," I mean driving your own vehicle or rental.)

Which one is the last for you?
If you are talking about a district? Which is used then?
This part of town is well served. Its easy to get to every part in the city from there.
What about talking about public as opposed to private transportation?

alc24Which one is the last for you?You listed three expressions. I consider the third one to be the last.
"Public transportation" comprises rail, busses, taxis, etc.
