The Mellor Tucana,[1][2] (previously known as the Bluebird Tucana) is a small wheelchair-accessible minibus in use in the United Kingdom. Its major operator is Transport for London, who operates these for their Dial-a-ride scheme. A number are also used by London-based bus operator CT Plus for commercial route 812. In 2016, the design was facelifted, with the design similar to the outgoing Orion.
