A woman staying at a local hotel was struck by a commuter bus near the Meadowlands Tuesday night.

The 36-year-old victim wasn't in a crosswalk when an NJ Transit bus hit her in the middle lane of Route 120 (Paterson Plank Road) outside the Holiday Inn Express in Carlstadt shortly after 7:30 p.m., Detective Sgt. John Cleary said.

She was taken to Hackensack University Medical Center with serious and possibly life-threatening injuries, Cleary said.
