Salt water has a lower freezing temperature. That's why fresh water freezes first. The salt melts the ice and there is none in fresh water.

Adding solute to fresh water lowers the melting (freezing) point.
Salt is a solute.
Therefore, salt water has a lower freezing point.

The salted water has a lower freezing temperature. That is the reason to use salt to melt snow in highways.

salt, adding salt to water lowers the freezing point

In order for water to freeze, it has to crystallize, which means its particles have to get into their allignment. Salt interferes with crystallization, so salty water has a lower freezing point. It also has a higher boiling point, because salt interferes with its ability to escape (evaporate). That's why when you boil pasta, you put a little salt in the water.
