Can someone tell me how long the electric scooter trial is going to be going on around the university/York area?

For years residents of Badger Hill had to put up with cyclists on the footpaths. Now we have students coming up behind us recklessly on the scooters (sometimes even two on one scooter).

Is it going to be the usual case that if York council want it they will get it without any regards to the residents of the areas they affect? Do we have to wait until a serous or fatal accident occurs before there is a ban on them (as seen in other parts of the country)?
