PLATOON INTENT MESSAGES FOR DYNAMIC PRICING OF HIGH OCCUPANCY LANES (HOL)

Systems and methods are provided for platoon formation. The systems and methods may receive a platoon intent message from a first vehicle. A first location, first destination, and first high occupancy lane (HOL) price of the first vehicle may be determined from the platoon intent message. A second vehicle with a second platoon intent message comprising a second location and second destination that are within a location threshold and destination threshold of the first location and first destination of the first vehicle may be identified. A second HOL price of the second vehicle based on the second platoon intent message may be determined. It may be determined that the first HOL price of the first vehicle and the second HOL price of the second vehicle are above a price threshold. Upon such a determination, a platoon between the first and second vehicles may be established.
