Shopping centre's public transport withdrawn (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mart

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

'shopping centre's' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'public transport withdrawn' is the wordplay.
'public transport' becomes 'tram' (I've seen this before).
'withdrawn' is a reversal indicator.
'tram' written backwards gives 'MART'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for mart that I've seen before include "Trading centre" , "Place" , "Take tram to market" , "US shop; market" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
