The 57-year-old Port Townsend woman who was struck by a pickup truck on West Sims Way Monday evening is in satisfactory condition at Harborview Medical Center, according to hospital spokesperson Susan Gregg.
Port Townsend Police Chief Troy Surber said the collision occurred at 5:13 p.m. Dec. 1, when the woman attempted to use an illuminated crosswalk in the 1300 block of West Sims Way.
Though the crosswalk was illuminated with flashing lights, Surber said the woman had been wearing dark clothing. The driver of the truck, he added, had his headlights on at the time of the collision but was focused on a nearby bicyclist and did not notice the pedestrian as she crossed the street.
The driver stopped and provided aid to the woman following the collision.
She was later airlifted with a leg and hip injury.
The driver of the truck was cited for failure to yield to a pedestrian.
