Again put out in the way (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

route

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the way' is the definition.
(route is a kind of way)

'again put out in' is the wordplay.
'again put' becomes 're' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
're' enclosing 'out' is 'ROUTE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for route that I've seen before include "Path taken" , "Path to follow" , "Direction taken" , "Course followed" , "Course taken" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
