Meet Director Azad

Being in the role of director for 6 months, Imani managed to re-construct the city lines, improving efficiency with her hands-on approach and leadership style. Internally, she implemented a real-time tracking system and analyzing each shift, as well as numbers of passengers, she was able to effectively change the lines, making two lines that go through the whole city. She's currently working on creation of inner-city transport hub that would allow passengers to exchange lines easily to reach their desired destination. Her goal is to utilize efficiency of the buses, reducing the time needed to get to your end destination. Her vision for the transport hub includes smart scheduling, real-time tracking, and streamlined connections, minimizing delays and overcrowding.

Meet Deputy Director Harr

I joined the Department of Transportation in February 2025 as a Junior Bus Operator. I gradually climbed the ranks of the department to Senior Bus Operator, then was promoted to my current position of Deputy Director of Transportation. I mainly identify myself as a democratic leader, always looking to get input from the team in our projects. The city of Los Santos is ever evolving, therefore it's essential that the service this department offers also keeps evolving to meet the public's expectations. Fulfilling these expectations and needs is the core of every decision we make. Currently, we're working on increasing the size of our driving team, and future proof our operation with the introduction of a transportation hub. The constant requirement to evolve our operation presents challenges, however, knowing that I have played a focal part in a service that is used by our public is the most rewarding aspect of my position.

Further Information

'Los Santos Transit' is a name used in place of Department of Transportation, this was adopted to simplify communication and improve recognition amongst the general public. Today, the name is widely understood and provides a modern identity that represents our mission of accessibility and efficiency.

Their Headquarters are situated over in Mission Row, directly opposite the Emergency Department Entrance of Pillbox Hill Medical Center, which is an extremely central location, allowing for much easier access and availability for their bus drivers to operate out of. Bus drivers operate along set timetables and routes, making sure their vehicles are fit for service and ready for future trips, as well as provide any information that can assist in answering a passenger's inquiries, whilst keeping everyone aboard safe. They also carry out, and assist in, bus tours of the city which will help those visiting for sightseeing-related means.

Should any other Department within the city require transportation to and from their events, this department will allocate busses to the roster to assist the requesting agency. Any and all government agencies are invited to utilise the Department of Transportation to carry out these assignments, with the most prominent ones including the likes of the Department of Health and Welfare, as well as external agencies too.

Our drivers and operators are the sheer backbone for not only this department, but the city as a whole. They are held to a high standard, ensuring their passengers remain safe, whilst also ensuring that their routes go smoothly to give members of the public the most memorable experiences. They are forever expanding their means and accessibility, with communication and community engagement being at the forefront of every single one of the minds within their team, regardless of any external factors.
