Question: In what decade were the Eastern Docks that can be seen today created?

Answer: 1830s

Town Quay is the original public quay, and dates from the 13th century. <hl> Today's Eastern Docks were created in the 1830s by land reclamation of the mud flats between the Itchen & Test estuaries. <hl> The Western Docks date from the 1930s when the Southern Railway Company commissioned a major land reclamation and dredging programme. Most of the material used for reclamation came from dredging of Southampton Water, to ensure that the port can continue to handle large ships.

Question: Along which border of Southampton does the River Test run?

Answer: western

<hl> The River Test runs along the western border of the city, separating it from the New Forest. <hl> There are bridges over the Test from Southampton, including the road and rail bridges at Redbridge in the south and the M27 motorway to the north. The River Itchen runs through the middle of the city and is bridged in several places. The northernmost bridge, and the first to be built, is at Mansbridge, where the A27 road crosses the Itchen. The original bridge is closed to road traffic, but is still standing and open to pedestrians and cyclists. The river is bridged again at Swaythling, where Woodmill Bridge separates the tidal and non tidal sections of the river. Further south is Cobden Bridge which is notable as it was opened as a free bridge (it was originally named the Cobden Free Bridge), and was never a toll bridge. Downstream of the Cobden Bridge is the Northam Railway Bridge, then the Northam Road Bridge, which was the first major pre-stressed concrete bridge to be constructed in the United Kingdom. The southernmost, and newest, bridge on the Itchen is the Itchen Bridge, which is a toll bridge.

Question: About how much of UK's passenger traffic did Southampton handle during the inter-war period?

Answer: half

Southampton has always been a port, and the docks have long been a major employer in the city. <hl> In particular, it is a port for cruise ships; its heyday was the first half of the 20th century, and in particular the inter-war years, when it handled almost half the passenger traffic of the UK. <hl> Today it remains home to luxury cruise ships, as well as being the largest freight port on the Channel coast and fourth largest UK port by tonnage, with several container terminals.
