Alignment
At the town of Ratodero (near Sukkur) the M5 from Multan has to merge into the M7, while crossing the M8, the highway to Gwadar at the border with Iran. The M7 then runs south along the Indus River and serves several cities, of which Larkana is the most important. However, this last route must pass through the Kirthar Range, a low mountain range.
