The given line graph illustrates the number of goods imported in the UK from 1974 to 2002 by road, water, rail, and pipeline.
Overall, quantities of all the goods transported in the UK with different modes of transport increased in the last year.
Goods which were transported by water and rail began from the same level of approximately 40 in 1974. Water increased significantly to nearly 55 before remaining in the same level till 1990. Beginning from 1990 there was a slight decrease to 55 in 1998 followed gradual rise to 60 in 2002. Turning to rail import it is clear that there was a slight fluctuation which finished in 2002 nearly at the same level as it was in the beginning.
Pipeline transportation began with the tiniest amount of 1 before increasing moderately in 1982 to 10. In 1994 this number reached its peak of 20 and stood steady till 2002.
The last one which is road import began with the highest quantity and remained the leader in the end. Starting with 70 million tones this number oscillated until 1994 with the same number of 70 million. This amount increased significantly in 1998 to approximately 90 and increased minimally in 2002 and was the leader with 100 million tones.
