Dignitaries paid respects to retired Police Commissioner Paul Farquharson during a viewing at the Paul Farquharson Conference Center at Police Headquarters yesterday.

A funeral service will be held today at Christ Church Cathedral at 11am.

A number of road closures have been announced for today's service, with Bay Street closed to all vehicular traffic between Navy Lion Road and Bank Lane from 12.30pm to accommodate the procession from Christ Church Cathedral to Rawson Square, where a mock burial will take place.
