We are incredibly proud to share the inspiring journey of Samantha Eveleigh, a true trailblazer in the Traffic Management industry. At the recent TMAA Annual Awards, Sam achieved a remarkable feat by securing two out of the three accolades. Crowned Indigenous Traffic Controller of the Year 2022 and National Traffic Controller of the Year 2022, her accomplishments caught the attention of National Indigenous TV, who approached her for an interview to shed light on her achievements and the impactful work she does in communities.

6 Years at TWX

Sam has been an invaluable member of the Trafficwerx NT team for the past six years. Throughout her tenure, she has excelled in her role as a Traffic Controller, catching the attention of Chris Boyer, the Director of Trafficwerx NT. Recognizing her potential, Chris encouraged Sam to pursue her WZ1 tickets, granting her the opportunity to become a Traffic Management Designer. Initially uncertain about her ability to complete the rigorous five-day course, which included challenging assessments, Sam pushed past her doubts and successfully obtained her certification. She can now implement changes on-site to ensure the utmost safety for all road users, workers, and pedestrians.

Expressing her deep passion for working in Traffic Control, Sam emphasizes how the ever-changing outdoor environment perfectly suits her career aspirations. She also cherishes the opportunity to work remotely and in various communities. Sam fondly recounts how young people approach her with curiosity about her job, which she utilizes as a platform to promote safe road practices in communities that may not otherwise receive such vital information. She highlights the vast potential within the Traffic Management field, emphasizing how it can serve as an entry-level job leading to roles in design and even civil construction.

Indigenous Employment 

Sam, an Aboriginal woman based in Darwin, proudly traces her ancestry to Galiiwin’ku, the home of the Yolngu people. Recognizing the underrepresentation of Indigenous individuals in the industry, she hopes that her prestigious awards will inspire more Indigenous people to pursue their own certifications and embark on successful careers in Traffic Management. Importantly, Sam emphasizes the existence of employment services that can assist with startup costs, including course fees and personal protective equipment (PPE).

Road Safety

Road safety has always been Sam’s top priority. She is renowned for going above and beyond to ensure that the right people are promptly informed if a potential incident arises. Even outside of work hours, she diligently checks her own setups, mitigating risks and preventing incidents. It is this unwavering dedication, coupled with her comprehensive knowledge of Traffic Management and strong relationships with major civil construction companies, that has earned her these prestigious awards. Sam remains committed to using her voice to advocate for improved working conditions and increased opportunities for Indigenous individuals entering the workforce.

The TMAA Annual Conference and Awards, an esteemed event in the Traffic Management industry, brought together professionals from across Australia. Hosted by the Traffic Management Association of Australia, this gathering showcased innovative businesses, featured speakers sharing best practices, and recognized outstanding individuals. Spanning three days, it offered captivating activities, including a Golf Day and an Industry Leaders breakfast. The highlight was undoubtedly the TMAA Annual Conference, followed by the eagerly awaited Awards ceremony, revealing the coveted title of Traffic Controller of the Year.

TMAA Awards 

At the start of the event at RASC Royal Pines in Gold Coast, March 2023, Trafficwerx NT’s CEO, Matthew Bereni, made an exciting announcement. In addition to the prestigious Traffic Controller of the Year award, two new accolades were introduced: Rising Star Traffic Controller of the Year and Indigenous Traffic Controller of the Year. These awards were significant, showcasing the qualities needed to excel in a constantly evolving environment and highlighting the underrepresentation of Indigenous workers in the field.

Supporting Sam

Trafficwerx NT had a strong presence at the conference and awards ceremony, with a delegation from the Darwin office and two remote workers from Queensland. Suzie Bee from City of Darwin also attended to support Samantha Eveleigh, the NT Finalist for the Traffic Controller of the Year award 2022. Samantha, affectionately known as Sam, discovered her nomination during a significant event shift in late January.

Sam, a Senior Traffic Controller at Trafficwerx NT for six years, recently acquired her WZ1 tickets, enabling her to make on-site changes. Despite her achievements, Sam remains humble, making her recognition as the NT state finalist a testament to her own belief in herself and her abilities. The awards ceremony held great importance for Sam, and her best friend Anita joined the Trafficwerx NT team to provide moral support.

We are thrilled to announce Sam’s extraordinary success. She won the inaugural Indigenous Traffic Controller of the Year award and the highly coveted National Traffic Controller of the Year award, securing two out of the three accolades. Trafficwerx is proud that esteemed industry leaders recognized Sam as an incredible asset to Traffic Management and road safety in the Northern Territory and across Australia. She is a true role model for Indigenous women in construction and a staunch advocate for the well-being of all road workers, users, and pedestrians, promoting safe working conditions for all.
