Crossword Genius

This roadway is a place to meet (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

avenue

'this roadway' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'a place to meet' is the wordplay.
'place to meet' becomes 'venue' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'venue'='AVENUE'

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for avenue that I've seen before include "A broad thoroughfare as in New York" , "Wide street or path to progress" , "A line of approach" , "Wide and handsome street" , "Means of approach" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
