The graph below shows the quantities of goods transported in the UK between 1974 and 2002 by four different modes of transport.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The line graph compares the amounts of goods delivered by four means of transport in the UK from 1974 to 2002.

Overall, road was responsible for the transportation of most goods over that period. The quantities of goods shipped by those modes increased, except water which showed some fluctuations.

In 1974, approximately 70 million tonnes of goods were moved by road while the amounts of goods delivered by water and rail were nearly equal, at 40 million tonnes. In contrast, pipeline took responsibility for the delivery of only about 5 million tonnes.

From that year to 2002, the importance of road to transport goods increased, with its figure rising to a peak of approximately 95 million tonnes. Despite a stability in the first four years, the figures for water and rail then showed different trends. While the former climbed to over 60 million tonnes, the latter went down marginally before recovering to the initial point. Pipeline, similar to road, became a more popular way to ship goods, and its figure climbed to about 20 million tonnes at the end.
