Meandering bus trip gets near city (5,10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

saint petersburg

'city' is the definition.
(Saint Petersburg is an example)

'meandering bus trip gets near' is the wordplay.
'meandering' indicates an anagram.
'bus'+'trip'+'gets'+'near'='bustripgetsnear'
'bustripgetsnear' anagrammed gives 'SAINT PETERSBURG'.

(Other definitions for saint petersburg that I've seen before include "city" , "former capital" , "[TSAR] would call this home" , "capital no longer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
