Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master in Science Abstract As a response to the substantial development interest in the growth potential of Temburong district in Brunei Darussalam, a proposal for an eco-town masterplan was formed to balance the development with the district's ecological role. The master plan is also in line with the national vision of Wawasan Brunei 2035 - a means to guide the sustainable development of the country. This research argues that to achieve sustainability, urban structures and functions must enable access to the means to live sustainably. The eco-city model emphasises the achievement of sustainability aims by enabling the community to make sustainable changes. This is achieved by focusing on the locality's character and demographic as the foundation of the sustainability strategy. The planned development of Temburong includes a university campus integrated into residential and commercial areas. Therefore, the study of established campus communities within Brunei benefits the eco-town masterplan and Temburong's sustainable development. Furthermore, higher education institutions (HElS) act as a city on a smaller scale, enabling its role as a learning lab. The achievement of a sustainable campus could thus, inform the development of the wider community. This research looks into the application of the principles of the eco-city model on a local HEI to inform the adoption of the Temburong eco-town masterplan proposal for the achievement of Brunei's sustainability aims. A vital factor for the eco-city model and sustainable development is sustainable transport. It is the enabler of better participation and access to living improvements within the community. As such, this research aims to investigate the mobility challenges within the campus community and to give recommendations for a sustainable transport strategy to mitigate the issues and improve access and participation. By applying the capability approach as a theoretical framework, this research adopts the explanatory sequential mixed method design and utilised a questionnaire and interview for data collection. From the findings, three themes, four key issues and the attitudes towards sustainability within the campus community of Universiti Teknologi Brunei were determined. Additionally, by comparing results from different HEls, the research could determine how the characteristic of the institutions could affect the transport behaviour of the campus community. This adds further dimension in the formation of a sustainable transport strategy and improves understanding on the interaction of people with their space. Thus, by specifying the space to the needs of the people, it improved quality of life and participation in the community. Similarly, through increasing the quality of spaces, individuals are more supported in making sustainable changes. In this way, this research can inform the application of the eco-city model for Temburong to achieve sustainability and the goals of Wawasan Brunei 2035.
