New route, like a ring road? (5)
I believe the answer is:
outer
'ring road?' is the definition.
'outer' can be an answer for 'ring' (outer ring on an archery target). I am not sure about the 'road?' bit.
'new route' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'route' with letters rearranged gives 'OUTER'.
'like a' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for outer that I've seen before include "External; part of archery target" , "Away from the centre" , "Objective" , "Poor shot" , "Exterior or external, like space" .)
