Chad Pregracke, founder of Living Lands & Waters, and more recently, the Bison Bridge Foundation explains the idea to repurpose the I-80 Bridge over the Mississippi River and to bring a herd of bison on isn't an idea that came overnight. 
It's a concept that's earned the support of about 38,000 people as of spring 2022 and will keep forging ahead to the Iowa and Illinois DOTs as well as lawmakers both locally and in D.C. 
Chad says he'd like to see this piece of infrastructure repurposed, as a way to conserve, save money, host wildlife, bring in tourists, and improve the quality of life and place for the population already living and investing in the Quad Cities area.
