Methods and systems for optimizing traffic flow. The system includes a plurality of vehicles each having a location sensor configured to detect location data and a transceiver configured to communicate the location data. The system also includes a remote data server. The remote data server is configured to receive the respective location data from the plurality of vehicles. The remote data server is also configured to determine swarm traffic flow data based on the respective location data from the plurality of vehicles. The remote data server is also configured to determine adjusted traffic light timing data to optimize traffic flow based on the swarm traffic flow data. The system also includes a plurality of traffic lights coupled to the remote data server and configured to receive the adjusted traffic light timing data and illuminate the plurality of traffic lights based on the adjusted traffic light timing data.
