The military road continues N along the A95 to Grantown-on-Spey. Although to the S side of the town the area has been considerably changed by the building of a new roundabout, there are two bridges in this stretch which may be original military constructions, at NJ 0190 2590 (NJ02NW 114.01) and at NJ 0221 2618 (NJ02NW 114.02). The route heads into town under Grant Road and Moss Road and finishes in the vicinity of NJ 0356 2839 on the A939.
