Public transport that is run with more passengers aboard? (6)
I believe the answer is:
busier
'more passengers aboard?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'public transport that is run' is the wordplay.
'public transport' becomes 'bus' (bus is a kind of public transport).
'that is' becomes 'ie' (short for Latin 'id est', 'that is').
'run' becomes 'r' (cricket abbreviation).
'bus'+'ie'+'r'='BUSIER'
'with' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for busier that I've seen before include "More fully engaged in work" , "More fully engaged or occupied" , "More active or engaged in work" , "Having a great deal more to do" , "More full of activity" .)
