Solved cad's clues, reaching blind alleys (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

culsdesac

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

'solved cad's clues' is the wordplay.
'solved' is an anagram indicator (the anagram must be solved).
'cads'+'clues'='cadsclues'
'cadsclues' anagrammed gives 'CULSDESAC'.

'reaching' is the link.

(Another definition for culsdesac that I've seen is " Blind alleys".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
