A vehicle platoon control system performs techniques for controlling a platoon of vehicles through an intersection. The platoon of vehicles is controlled through receiving location data for at least a first vehicle of the platoon of vehicles, map matching the location data for the first vehicle to a road network, identifying an intersection in the road network in response to the matched location data, determining a time period for the intersection, calculating a distance to the intersection for a second vehicle of the platoon of vehicles, calculating a travel time based on the distance to the intersection for the second vehicle of the platoon of vehicles, performing a comparison of the time period for the intersection to the travel time for the second vehicle, and generating a platoon command in response to the comparison.
