Coastal road announced comes to port (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beirut

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'port' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'coastal road announced' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'road' could be 'rut' (rut is a kind of road) and 'rut' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'comes to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for beirut that I've seen before include "Capital of 21 across" , "Capital city of Lebanon" , "Middle East capital" , "Lebanon's capital" , "Lebanese capital" .)
