A GO train and a vehicle have collided just east of Port Credit.

The train was the Aldershot 12:01 p.m. train headed to Union Station.

Peel police say the crash happened at Alexandra Avenue and Fourth Street in Mississauga.

A man was the only person in the car and police said the car was not on the tracks but rather hit the train.

The driver was walking around after the crash and he was transported to a trauma centre in non-life-threatening condition, stable, awake and talking.
