Cochrane–Africatown USA Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Mobile, United States.

The Cochrane-Africatown USA Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge crossing the Mobile River in Alabama. The structure uses steel cables anchored to two tall main piers to span the waterway below.

Completed and opened in 1991, the bridge replaced the 60-year-old vertical-lift Cochrane Bridge, which had been named for John T. Cochrane Sr., president of the Mobile Chamber of Commerce. The new span was named for both that predecessor and the Africatown community where its western approach was built. Its design by Volkert and Associates won the National Society of Professional Engineers' Outstanding Engineering Achievement in the U.S.A. Award and the Federal Highway Administration's Award of Excellence in Highway Design, both in 1992.

The bridge takes its name from the historic Africatown neighborhood, founded by people brought to the United States during the Civil War period. This naming choice honors the settlement's role in the region's past and its continued presence in the community today.

The bridge serves as an important transportation corridor for through traffic, especially for commercial trucks. Visitors should expect moderate to heavy traffic, particularly during peak hours, as the route accommodates essential vehicle movements across the river.

In 2005 Hurricane Katrina tore the 13,000-ton semi-submersible platform PSS Chemul from its drydock and wedged it under the bridge. Damage was mostly cosmetic, including concrete, guard rails and a broken cable stay dampener, and the bridge kept carrying two lanes of traffic.
