Residents worry new Three Forks rest area will create crime

A new rest area near Three Forks, Montana has been causing a lot of concern among residents that live in the area. The new location is intended to replace a rest area in Bozeman that closed permanently Monday [May 1] due to ongoing maintenance issues, according to a press release from MDot. But locals say they’re worried about an increase in crime generated by the new Headwaters Rest Area currently under construction near Wheat Montana in Three Forks, expected to open by this winter.
