Progressive (2-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

go-ahead

'progressive' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for go-ahead that I've seen before include "Enterprising" , "Enterprisingly progressive" , "Permission to proceed" , "Up-and-coming - authorisation" , "Pioneering (green light?)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Mirror.
