Emergency workers rushed the woman to St Barnabus Hospital and the victim's condition is critical.
Police say the vehicle involved was an 18-wheeler, but the driver has not been identified.
Meanwhile, a pedestrian was injured in Manhattan this morning when a light pole suddenly crashed onto a sidewalk.
Newscopter Seven was over the scene -- just after 10 a-m -- at the intersection of 27th Street and Park Avenue.
The precise circumstances of the accident are still unclear.
Police say the pole may not have toppled over -- rather, it may have fallen off a passing truck.
The pedestrian was taken to Bellevue hospital with unspecified injuries.
