A method including computing coordinated movements for a plurality of autonomous vehicles to provide access to a particular one of the autonomous vehicles, wherein each of the coordinated movements is computed to avoid movement of any one of the autonomous vehicles interfering with movement of any other one of the autonomous vehicles, and the requested access comprises one or more passengers entering into or exiting from the particular one of the autonomous vehicles, and causing the autonomous vehicles to execute autonomously the coordinated movements to provide the requested access. In addition, or alternatively, the requested access may comprise cargo being loaded into or unloaded from the particular one of the autonomous vehicles.
