HUMBOLDT — A part of Highway 5 within Humboldt will be closed to traffic starting Thursday.

Starting Thursday, Oct. 7, the part of the thoroughfare between Fourth Street and Seventh Street will be closed for repaving. The highway was dug up earlier this year so the City of Humboldt could replace water mains.

The city said they expect the highway to be closed for two days.
