The main form of transportation were bullock carts and boats. Traders traveled in carts or by boat. Indus valley boats were long and narrow. They had a cabin in the middle and were rowed. People did not travel much at all. They would usually walk everywhere they needed to go.

The inland transport was done with Bullock carts. Many Terracotta models of Bullock carts have been found in Harappan settlement. In Harappa was found a bronze model of a car with a seated driver and also models of little carts which were very similar to the modern 'Ikka' used in Punjab.
For longer journey through wooded country caravans of pack-oxen would be the chief means of transport. In historical times a large number of goods are transported by pastoral Nomadic communitie. Possibly the harappans also engaged in similar that practice.
However, in those times river systems would have been the channels of transportation because they were cheaper and safer.
