'finish fast time' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to time as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'a movable way' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'a' is present in the answer.
'way' could be 'st' (abbreviation for street) and 'st' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'eer' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to' is the link.
