The bar graph illustrates the commodities being transported through road, water, rail and pipeline medium during the period of 1974 to 2002 in the United Kingdom.
Overall, goods carry away by road, water and pipeline had faced variations but ended the recorded period upsurged majorly. Whereas shipment deliver by rail remained the same after had some fluctuation during the timeline.
The shipping by water and rail started with same amount of 40 million tonnes in 1974 and remained constant for a quadrennial period. Further, the water mode well liked in 1978 and witnessed a gradual hike until 1998 where a sudden downfall was recorded but finished with approx 63 million tonnes. While rail transportation had been faced an opposite trend and after oscillating during 90s it ended with the same number it started.
On the contrary, the largest quantity of products was transited by road throughout the timescale, opening with 70 million tonnes which elevated to 98 in 2002. While the pipeline mode was least popular amongst the others all along, therefore insignificant volume, with just half in billion, was transferred at first. Subsequently, progressive change was reported and after 1982 it went consistent to 2 billion tonnes.
