Traffic light's yellow shade (5)

I believe the answer is:

amber

(Other definitions for amber that I've seen before include "Brownish yellow" , "Yellow fossil-resin" , "Ornamental fossil resin" , "The traffic-light between red and green" , "Neither red nor green?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
