Abstract. We find a necessary and sufficient condition for the (local) projectabil- ity of a Legendrian foliation of an almost S-manifold onto a Lagrangian foliation of a symplectic manifold. In the context of Legendrian foliations, this result will be used for proving a Darboux theorem and some results about primary and secondary char- acteristic classes. Finally we show that, under suitable assumptions, every Legendrian foliation admits an Ehresmann connection.

Finally we show that, under suitable assumptions, every Legendrian foliation admits an Ehresmann connection.
