The Church of Santa Maria del Carmelo in Traspontina (Saint Mary of Carmel Across the Bridge) is a Roman Catholic titular church in Rome, run by the Carmelites. The bridge referred to is the Ponte Sant'Angelo. The church is on the Via della Conciliazione, the primary road of the Roman Rione of Borgo.

Pope Sixtus V designated the church as a cardinalatial titulus on 13 April 1587.^[1] The current cardinal of Santa Maria in Traspontina is the former Archbishop of Quebec, Marc Ouellet, and is the Prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops of the Roman Curia. He was Cardinal Priest from 2003 to 2018, and continued there when co-opted to suburbicarian rank.
