Operational Info & Passenger Covenant

WTI Dossier

Zero-Compromise Accountability

Operated under strict operational discipline across Ayrshire transit depots (Ayr, Kilmarnock, Ardrossan, Cumnock, Stranraer). We extract ground truth from commercial transit networks and institutional disclosures through autonomous edge architecture, guaranteeing 100% privacy, zero metadata persistence, and 100% forensic factual truth.

Lifeline Route Protection

Public transit in Ayrshire is an indispensable social lifeline linking rural settlements and former mining communities to NHS treatment, schools, and work. When commercial operators suppress cancellation data or abandon lifeline routes such as the 347 to Rankinston, 361 to Straiton, or 42 to Muirkirk, we record every ghost dropout for the Traffic Commissioner for Scotland.

Zero Metadata Architecture

Privacy-by-design: 100% free of invasive tracker cookies, client-side EXIF/metadata stripping, zero IP retention, and 30-minute timestamp quantization. Runs continuously on a £0 operating capital edge model.

Driver Advocacy & Dossiers

Independent driver advocacy supporting frontline crews operating under Western Buses Scotland. Evidence dossiers cross-reference real-time vehicle monitoring against confidential defect submissions for union stewards and statutory bodies (Sections 26 & 27).
