About Us

Who We are

The Long Distance Drivers and Conductors Association(LoDDCA) leads collective action of all drivers and conductors on every front within and without the transport sector through its membership base and convening power.

Registered in 2019, LoDDCA was established legally under the societies act as a non-profit association seeking to amplify member voices, Improve welfare and promoting effective representation. This was the culmination of years of struggle for the founding members who were drivers with no avenue of recourse. Finally leveraging on social media to organise, the conversation morphed into formalisation of the association to realise systemic and structural change.
