Systems and methods for controlling the speed of a vehicle traveling over a terrain. The methods comprise: predicting, by a mobile device (MD), a queue length defined by the number of vehicles in a queue at a downstream intersection based on a traffic volume and vehicle speeds that were detected during a past period of time by a detector located at or near an upstream intersection; sensing, by MD's sensor(s), the vehicle's velocity and location; computing a distance to a downstream intersection from the vehicle's location; generating a desired speed for the vehicle based on the traffic volume and vehicle speeds, signal phase and timing data for at least the next two cycles, the predicted queue length at the downstream intersection, the vehicle's velocity and location, the distance to the downstream intersection, and a current time; and using the desired speed to facilitate control of the speed of the vehicle.
