Detailed explanation-1: -"Inside the major blocks, the streets [of Mohenjo-daro] are not well-aligned. There are many doglegs and some deadends. The walls along the streets and lanes may pinch in on the avenues that grow narrower and narrower, but curves are rare in the Mohenjo-daro system of roads.
Detailed explanation-2: -Streets: The roads and streets intersected at right angles, with covered drains along the road. Houses were built on either side of the roads and streets. Drainage System: The drainage system of the Harappan cities was the best known to the world in ancient times.
Detailed explanation-3: -Larger avenues were paved with tan-colored bricks. The streets that crossed them were narrower and were usually left unpaved. Hundreds of sturdy brick houses lined the streets of Mohenjo-Daro. Most homes were small, one-room buildings.
