Shivaji Park's ineffective rainwater harvesting system is to soon see a revival after some correction are made to it. The BMC carried out a contour survey through which it has identified uneven patches throughout the ground and aims to fix these. The BMC said because of these uneven patches, the rain water was not sloping down to the drains created to collect the water, rendering the system ineffective.

Following the contour survey, the BMC plans to level the ground and get the issue resolved and also plans to have green lawns to avoid the dust that is one of the major problems faced by residents around the park. The park has been an iconic ground in Dadar West with several sports such as cricket, football, gymnastics practised here.
