### ['Limiting total numbers is not an issue'](https://blog.nivel.no/en/total-numbers)

Nov 12, 2021 3:07:00 AM

 'The problems occur on local level, where **digital regulation can solve the issues**', Nivel CEO Harald Sævareid says to Torgeir Waterhouse during a Nordic Edge Expo talk that now is broadcasted.

  

 Harald continues: 'If you limit the total numbers of shared scooters in a city, they will be even more densely concentrated in central areas, to maximise the revenue per scooter. As a city you want a **good distribution of the mobility service**. Stricter regulations in central areas will avoid the problems we have seen with over-flooded streets'  

     
Digital regulations enable **cities** **take control of the public space.** With powerful regulation tools comes also the discussion on the **numbers of scooters** to be permitted into the public realm. Our recommendation is to regulate the hotspots: on the busy town squares, outside the train station etc and let the service spread itself throughout the urban space with less regulation.
