Way out of Broads? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

road

'way' is the definition.
(I know that way can be written as road)

'of broads' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ROAD' can be found hidden inside 'broads'.

'out' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for road that I've seen before include "motorway?" , "mine gallery" , "Thoroughfare" , "'The . . . . to hell is paved with good intentions'" , "See 10" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
