A traffic planning method for a vehicle fleet A computer-implemented traffic planning method (1oo) for controlling a plurality of vehicles which are movable among multiple shared resources, comprising: receiving (112) a transport mission; generating (114) a root node representing an initial resource occupancy of the vehicles; generating (116) a search tree from the root node, in which each edge represents a motion command and each node represents a resource occupancy, wherein each node is associated with a score related to the vehicles' fulfilment of the transport mission; identifying (118) a target node with an acceptable score; and deriving (120) a planned sequence of motion commands corresponding to a path to the target node, wherein the score of a node includes a short-term component, which represents a cost of executing all motion commands from the root node to said node, and a long term component, which is determined by the resource occupancy that the node represents.
