It's because of the wavelength of red light.It can travel far more than other lights.It caneven travel through storm, dust and smog but sure reach the destination.
So this is used in traffic signals and in towers too.
You can observe the same phenomenon in setting sun's redsky!

Blue is third and red is seventh then the blue should have the more wavelength than red
