Sounds like you may want to use Chained, but your description isn't
really clear enough to answer for sure.

sub bar : Chained('/') PathPart('') CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub other : Chained('bar') PathPart('') CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub foo : Chained("other') PathPart(''foo) Args(0) { }

Calling /foo would call bar, then other and finally foo.
