The accident happened near the intersection of Greenacre Road and Northcote Street, West Wollongong, just after 8am.
It is believed the woman, aged in her 50s, had gotten out of a car and was preparing to cross the road.
She looked in one direction for oncoming traffic, then stepped onto the road and was hit by a car travelling in the opposite direction.
She suffered head injuries and was taken by ambulance to nearby Wollongong Hospital.
Police closed the road for a short time after the accident while ambulance officers assessed the patient.
