blue lights are an option and do give a visual indicator that a lift may be coming towards you, but still do not address the audible ability of knowing where a lift actually is.
the best solution is to install or enable an alarm to sound off so there is no question as to where the lift is at any given time while it is in motion.
having a blue light on it would also enhance this for additional protection.
