Salt lowers the freezing point temperature, it does not completely prevent freezing. Otherwise we would not have sea ice.

Why is it that a tub of water placed in a farmers canning cellar helps prevent canned food from freezing in cold winters?
Ice is a good insulator - it does not conduct thermal energy well. A layer of ice can (rather counter intuitively) keep a cellar warmer than the cold winter outside, if the winter weather is well below the freezing point. This is the same principle that keeps rivers and lakes from freezing all the way through in winter weather.
Why during winter in cold countries salt is frequently sprinkled on the road?
Rock salt is put on roads to reduce the freezing point of the water thereby reducing icing on roads. This helps to prevent accidents due to skidding and loss of control of the vehicle.

Why do we grit roads?
There are two reasons: 1) adding grit to the road helps to improve the tyres' grip on the icy surface. 2) the grit contains salt and that lowers the freezing point of water, so it helps prevent ice forming.
