Open lane used freely (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unsealed

'open' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'lane used freely' is the wordplay.
'freely' indicates an anagram.
'lane'+'used'='laneused'
'laneused' is an anagram of 'UNSEALED'.

(Another definition for unsealed that I've seen is " Open".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
