'regular traffic?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'close clever site to be revamped' is the wordplay.
'close' becomes 'shut' (synonyms).
'to be revamped' indicates anagramming the letters.
'clever'+'site'='cleversite'
'cleversite' with letters rearranged gives 'tleservice'.
'shut'+'tleservice'='SHUTTLE SERVICE'

'for' acts as a link.
