The bridge freezes first unless it has something over it. Because the heat is not trapped on the top of the bridge like it is in a tunnel. In a tunnel the heat does not radiate back out which is similar to the fact that you won't develop near as much frost on a windshield when it is parked under a carport than when out in the open.

What freezes first in wet weather a bridge roadway or a highway roadway?

In wet weather, a bridge roadway typically freezes first compared to a highway roadway. This is because bridges are exposed to cold air from all sides, leading to faster cooling and potential ice formation. Additionally, bridges have less ground contact, which makes them more prone to freezing due to air circulating beneath them.
