A system comprising a computer including instructions to collect object data about each of a plurality of objects within a zone from sensors on a roadside infrastructure unit. The zone includes a road intersection. The object data includes an object type, an object location, an object speed and an object direction of travel for each object. The computer further includes instructions to determine, based on the object data, an availability level for execution of one or more paths through the road intersection by a vehicle wherein the availability level for each of the one or more paths is based on a likelihood of interference between any of the objects and the vehicle as the vehicle traverses the respective path. The computer further includes instructions to transmit an availability message to the vehicle including the availability level for each of the one or more paths.
