It's always been the coils snapping, as that is what holds the structure. The solution is to dump a bunch of concrete on top of and around the pipe, the hope being that will hold it together. So they just need to expose the exterior of the pipe at all these locations.
Now, will that work? I'm not a pipexpert. I suspect this is now turning into a giant game of whack-a-mole. I hope they have a better long term plan, as this seems like a very short term fix for only the spots they picked. There are probably still plenty of sections of pipe in decent shape, I'd just be incredibly surprised if they managed to identify every weak spot.
