«Strategic Regulation for Emerging Mobility: Norway’s Action Plan for Micromobility and Adjacent Transport Services»

Norway’s national transport goals emphasize safety, sustainability, efficiency, and accessibility. In response to the rapid growth of micromobility and adjacent transport services, the Norwegian Public Roads Administration has undertaken a comprehensive revision of its action plan for regulation in this area.

This presentation outlines the strategic process behind the revision, including stakeholder engagement, policy alignment, and regulatory analysis. It highlights key proposed measures aimed at ensuring that micromobility contributes positively to the broader transport system, while addressing challenges related to safety, infrastructure, and governance. The session offers insights into how Norway is adapting its regulatory framework to support innovation and meet long-term mobility objectives.
