Auto route under a river (6)

I believe the answer is:

tunnel

(Other definitions for tunnel that I've seen before include "Passageway under something" , "Underground passage for road or railway" , "An underground route" , "See 6" , "Passage through or under something" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
