No a bridge does not need to be wet when it freezes because of the weather it is automatically cold and the only way it can freeze if you have ice or snow on the bridge

Why do the road on the bridge freeze quicker?

There are three main reasons why bridges freeze before roads. The first is that a bridge is exposed from below and above, unlike a roadway. Roads don't freeze over as quickly because they can take advantage of insulation and warmth from the soil below. Bridges, on the other hand, are beset with cold temperatures from all sides, which can cause them to ice over quickly. Bridges also freeze rapidly because many of them are located over cold spots, like frozen rivers or deep ravines. The third reason that bridges freeze before roads is their construction. The materials used in the core of a bridge are excellent heat conductors. As a result, they draw heat out from the inside of the bridge, transferring it to the surface where it is quickly lost when ambient temperatures are very cold. Bridges often quickly reach the general air temperature, so when the thermometer reads 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius), the bridge will freeze .
