This line graph illustrates the amount of products transported by different means in the UK every four years from 1974 to 2002.
As clearly seen by the graph, the quantity transported by road accounts for the largest proportion both in 1974 and 2002, showing 70 million tonnes and almost 100 tonnes respectively. In contrast, the transportation having the lowest popularity was pipeline over the research periods.
For the beginning of the research periods, in 1974, the amount of goods transported by water and rail was almost same at around 40 million tonnes. However, it is interesting to note the difference, which started in 1978, shows the opposite trend. The quantity of goods transported by water reveals an increasing trend, culminating almost at 60 million tonnes, while the figure of rail remains constant.
In conclusion, the most popular transportation was by road from 1974 to 2002. The quantity of products transported by water and pipeline gradually has rose, while rail has a steady figure over the research periods.
