Const. Lorraine Edwards tells CHML the male victim is in his mid-50s, but his name has not been released.
She says they have spoken to several witnesses and determined that a work truck hit the cyclist in the intersection, but that the driver failed to remain at the scene.
The intersection was closed for a couple of hours, but has since reopened to traffic.
Anyone with information on the crash is being asked to contact Hamilton Police.
