Salt slows down the freezing, but not the melting. So ice melts faster. When ice melts, it takes energy (heat) from the surroundings. Since the ice is artificially melting faster, it takes more energy than normal, lowering the surface temperature to below 0 degree C. So salt lowers the freezing point of water.
