Looking at Google Maps satellite view right now and the current image shows that new bridge for the doubled track during its construction if this is the bridge over the Karha River, just a bit north of Jejuri. Just south of bridge Street View at the grade crossing with combined Kothali and Dahlewadi roads shows the double track and catenary. Also at grade crossing are some interesting steel beam structures which look sturdy enough to lower your vehicle's roof height if it might be too tall to safely pass under the railway's 25,000 volt catenary. If Railpictures will allow inclusion of the Google Maps Street View URL, here it is, https://www.google.com/maps/@18.2955857,74.1625306,3a,35.6y,46.61h,90.33t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1smSxSj8Ci6SYkYwPoiXOKxg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?entry=ttu

@FSWood - Good observation. as a part of doubling the old MG alignment is demolished (remains still exist). All the new bridge constructed as a part of doubling are all concrete bridge in the entire section between Shindawane Ambale to Jejuri. Having said that all the LC gates are now replaced with road under bridge as a measure of safety and to address the traffic congestion especially near the major towns / city.
