Public transport lines filling routes by going all over the place (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trolleybus

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lines filling routes by going all over the place' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'public transport' is the wordplay.
'public' becomes 'trolley' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'transport' becomes 'bus' (busing is a kind of transporting).
'trolley'+'bus'='TROLLEYBUS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for trolleybus that I've seen is " Electrically driven public service vehicle".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
