At East Coast Traffic Control, we believe in recognising and celebrating the hard work, dedication, and commitment of our incredible team. Last week, we launched the first-ever East Coast Traffic Control Excellence Awards Night at Headricks Lane in Rockhampton—a night dedicated to honouring those who go above and beyond in their roles.
Bringing together staff from across the country, the event was a chance to reflect on the achievements of the past year, acknowledge outstanding contributions, and celebrate the people who make ECTC the company it is today.
A Night of Recognition and Celebration
The inaugural awards night was designed to showcase the excellence that exists within our team. From front-line traffic controllers to leadership figures, the event recognised the effort and passion that drive our success.
One of the most highly anticipated moments of the night was the presentation of the Traffic Controller of the Year Award—a prestigious honour awarded to the team member who exemplifies professionalism, safety, and commitment to the job.

Honouring Years of Service
In addition to recognising individual excellence, we also took the opportunity to celebrate long-term service milestones.

These milestones reflect the loyalty, expertise, and passion of our workforce. The success of ECTC is built on the dedication of our people, and we are proud to celebrate their long-standing contributions.
