Charges have been laid following a crash on the 401 earlier this week

Wednesday afternoon, Elgin OPP say a transport truck drove into a closed portion of the highway near Merlin Road and crashed into a stationary trailer loaded with construction equipment.

Two people in the transport were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

A 64-year-old from Brampton has been charged with careless driving.
