A spokesman from the Met Police say the man suffered multiple injuries which could be life-threatening.
He is currently in a critical condition.
An appeal for information about the incident has been launched.
Sergeant Ken Smith, who attended the scene, said: "I am appealing for anyone who may have seen anything of this collision.
"It is a residential road and also a busy thoroughfare for traffic to shops and services in the high street.
"Were you walking or driving through the area around lunchtime?
"Were you looking out of a window to the street?
