Dean Scanlen obtains statutory consents for the traffic-related aspects of development projects. He makes sure his clients (and their projects) can afford the conditions of those consents.
He achieves this by providing traffic reports (also known as “Traffic Impact Assessments” or “Traffic Effects Assessments”), including parking assessments, access and/or road design. These show your Council, the NZ Transport Agency and/or or a court why they should give consent to your application with affordable conditions.
Dean handles commercial, residential or institutional developments of any scale and complexity, anywhere from remote rural locations to cities.
He has specialist knowledge of traffic engineering principles and the consent requirements in relation to the traffic, transport, parking and/or access/roading aspects of projects. This ensures you have the best chance of success in your consent application, whether it is from your Council, the NZ Transport Agency, the Environment Court or the High Court.
Dean has extensive knowledge and experience in the economic analysis of projects. This ensures your project is as cost-effective as possible and/or that suitable projects will obtain funding support from the NZ Transport Agency.
Dean is also an experienced safety auditor and peer reviewer of traffic reports or economic analyses by others.

Deans Approach
Dean identifies the key traffic issues and anticipates all the questions that the consent authorities or the court might have about the issues.
He will then, as necessary, carry out first-principles analysis and/or original research that reveals the real effects of the proposal. This often includes comparisons with similar situations, examples being analyses of historic crash rates or surveys to confirm an intersection is operating at a satisfactory level of service.

About Dean
Dean is an independent traffic and transport engineering specialist and Chartered Professional Engineer with more than 25 years experience. He obtained a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Auckland University, with first-class honours, in 1985.
He is accepted by Councils as a suitably qualified and experienced traffic engineer, is an experienced road safety auditor and peer reviewer of traffic impact assessments, project feasibility studies and economic analyses prepared by others. Dean is a regular cyclist and advocate for cyclists, pedestrians and other vulnerable users of our roads.
Dean is a professional member of the Institution of Professional Engineers, the NZ Transport Database bureau and Standards NZ. He has full access to the database of road crashes that are reported to the Police and all literature that is accepted for use by Councils and Road Controlling Authorities.
To support his economic analysis work, Dean has successfully completed two Stage III university papers in resource and environmental economics. He attends courses and seminars regularly to ensure he is up-to-date with the latest rules, methods and/or case law.
Dean is particularly successful at guiding complex and/or non-complying projects through the consent process, some very large. This often results in big savings for his clients, most commonly in reduced parking requirements and/or reduced width requirements for roads or access.
Dean’s ability to identify and focus in on key issues and the real effects of proposals regularly provides significant savings for his clients - usually many more times than the amount of his fee.
Dean has extensive experience in the capacity and traffic safety assessment and design of entrances onto public roads, internal access, parking areas, vehicle manoeuvring areas and the wider effects of generated traffic or parking demand on the existing road network including realistic predictions of future traffic.
He uses specialist computer-based software for 3-dimensional terrain modelling, road design and vehicle tracking when necessary to provide you with the most cost-effective, efficient and practical access solutions.
