Colour coded outdoor activity timetable
Split the population into coloured groups (red, blue, yellow etc) and supply each household with their colour card. Create a timetable allowing each colour group dedicated times to venture out a little further afield / do a mixture of outdoor activities, and ensure it is policed properly with having to prove your group colour if asked, with large penalties if broken. This would restrict large crowds gathering in popular walking spots/countryside/golf courses etc, but give people something to look forward to if, for example, once a month they had a slot time to look forward to, allowing them some escape of being stuck at home or in the immediate vicinity of their home.
Why the contribution is important
In the last few weeks we have started to see many people flout the current restrictions as it becomes more and more difficult to remain in lockdown with no escape from daily stresses. This would break the monotony and improve quality of life, ensuring there is some control over the levels of people moving around and will help to stop people abusing it and making it fairer for everyone.

- I think its Indonesia where they use and odd-even policy to manage traffic congestion - if you have an even or odd number end of your licence plate it means you can access certain roads only on even and odd dates. The policy is only applied only during certain hours and at certain roads as decided by the authority, (with exceptions for key vehicles etc).
-I think some Caribbean countries have also done something similar during Covid times to manage congestion in the supermarkets - based on the first letter of your surname and allocating days of the week / times of day to when you can shop in a way that is fair.
Obviously it might not be needed everywhere if there isn't a congestion problem but in some of the higher density areas something simple but effective like this could work to ease congestion.
