Abstract
As leading higher education institutions, top universities generate significant daily traffic. In addition, its high education quality often attracts youth to migrate and live closer to the university complex. The development of novel policies that support sustainable transport mode usage will become a role model and provide public benefits to the environment. Yet, there is little knowledge and limited research on university student mobility. This study aims to identify the significance of the daily trip distribution generated by top university students and identify the sustainability of its transportation modes by taking Bandung, Indonesia, as a case study. Responses from 383 students at 4 top universities were collected and then analysed using comparative analysis. The analysis reveals that 66,48 % of the students live in an area less than a 5 Km radius, yet, still depend on non-sustainable transport modes. This finding carries important policy implications to encourage more sustainable transport mode usage within this 5 Km area.
