The party has already inaugurated the Marine Drive repair project and the makeover plan for Five Gardens in Matunga.
The party wants to field its standing committee chairman from Dadar in the Lok Sabha election.
Programmes will be held to either commission completed projects or launch projects delayed for years now.
With the election code of conduct to set in soon, political parties are scurrying to inaugurate and announce several projects.
Among the projects to be inaugurated will the already delayed Britannia and Guzderband pumping stations. These pumping stations were proposed after the 2005 deluge to flush water into the sea.
The party hopes to commission the Cleaveland Bunder pumping station project in three months.
Party leaders said it was just coincidental the works were completed or will start around election-time.
"Most of these projects have been planned for the last few years," a senior corporator said.
A disaster training centre at Parel will be inaugurated. The Shiv Sena also plans to do the bhoomipujan for the over Rs 1,500 crore road works to be issue this year. The tenders for these will be before the standing committee in the next few weeks.
Work on the sewage treatment plants in Colaba and Mahim is expected to start after bhoomipujan in two months.Opposition leader Devendra Amberkar said the Shiv Sena-BJP alliance had undertaken these inauguration works keeping in mind the Lok Sabha election.
"For the last five years, they kept sitting on these projects for various reasons," he said. "Now suddenly they have woken up."
