Systems and methods for cooperatively managing mixed traffic at an intersection are disclosed herein. One embodiment determines, at an autonomous sensor-rich vehicle, that one or more other vehicles are following in the same lane, the one or more other vehicles including at least one legacy vehicle; communicates with the one or more other vehicles to form a platoon; receives Signal Phase and Timing (SpaT) information from a roadside unit associated with an intersection toward which the platoon is traveling; calculates at the autonomous sensor-rich vehicle, based at least in part on the SPaT information and location information for the platoon, a speed profile and a trajectory for the autonomous sensor-rich vehicle that minimize a delay of the platoon in traversing the intersection while accounting for fuel consumption; and executes the speed profile and the trajectory to control indirectly the one or more other vehicles while the platoon traverses the intersection.
