A woman has been taken to the hospital after she was struck by a truck while riding her bike in the Cabbagetown area.

Toronto police say she was struck at around 6 p.m. in the area of Gerrard Street East and Parliament Street.

Paramedics tell CTV News Toronto that they transported the woman to the hospital with serious, non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say the driver of the truck remained on the scene.
