Turn up time and place (3)
I believe the answer is:
put
'place' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'turn up time' is the wordplay.
'turn' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'up' reversed gives 'pu'.
'pu'+'t'='PUT'
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for put that I've seen before include "Set (in place)" , "Place; placed" , "Place, lay" , "Place in a location" , "Place in a position" .)
